when you put new wheels and tires on are you suppost to have an alignment done, because I just had one done and then put new wheels and tires on and now its pulling to the left.

Anyone have any ideas

thanks

alignment probably, they are cheap..go get one...i take it they got balanced when they were put on though?

What happens if you don't get your tires balanced?

if you put on a plus size wheel and tire pakage..yes you need a wheel alignment.

if your car is pulling you need a wheel alignment

You should always get an alignment if your putting different rims on the car and tires , its worth it.

You should be able to feel it at speed. The wheel will vibrate and shake.
