Default 95 civic pulls to one side

Wassap HT...Yesterday I helped my friend lower his 95 civic on cheap ebay coilovers it's not my first time lowering a car so I know for sure we put and tighten everything up before he drove his car back home. So after we lowered his car on his way back home he called me and said he car was pulling to the right. Tires have correct psi and not rubbing against the fender when he drives or turns the wheel. Can anyone tell what could cause this problem. Thanks

Having lowered a car before I would assume you know a wheel alignment needs to be done to correct the toe settings which become skewed when the suspension is lowered and the geometry is changed. Getting the alignment done will correct the steering pull as well as prevent rapid tire wear.

You have to get an alignment whenever you change any suspension or alignment component. 101 stuff. Tell your friend to get an alignment.

Also tell your friend to save up for new shocks.

This is the first time I've seen this happen but I will tell my friend to get an alignment done to his car hopefully that will solve the problem. Thanks for the help guys.
