Alright here it goes. I took my car in to get the tires rebalanced and rotated, when I got it back the car pulled to the right hard. I had the front end aligned thinking that was the prob but of course it wasn't.
I talked to one of the shop workers and he said that it could be a radial pull, he said to switch the two front tires around and see if it pulls in the other direction. It did!
So, what do I do? Is the tire bad and if so which one? Also, what is a radial pull? I did a search here, but found no info. Any info would be great! Thanks.

Just replace the two front tires. I think it is wearing unevenly.

Radial pull is a tire condition. There can be many factors causing this but mostly it is because on of the sidewalls is stiffer than the other. this will give it a natural tendency to pull a certain direction. If the tread is still good on the tires then what you could try is removing a tire from the rim, flip it and remount it. If this doesn't work then try swapping the front tire positions again. And if this doesn't work do the same to the other tire. HTH.

Sounds like you might have an issue that the manufacturer would be interested in... Take 'em back and demand new tires!
