Alignment would fix it.

Had the same problem before I got coilovers, camber kit, and alignment.

What about worn out supension/steering components that are allowing the tire to not be in the correct position? Worn tie rod end, worn radius arm bushings, worn ball joints, etc...

heres the easy way to check inner outer and upper and lower ball joints lift car. then move tire side to side as turning back and forth you feel play inner or outer tierod end bad. then um and down like camber positve then negative you have play upper or lower balljoint bad

Yeah. That's what I would say to. This get an alignment and if you still have an problem after that then this take it to an show to have them look at it.... But I think that's all what it should need.

Check the alignment and any bad suspension parts.
