I also pull slightly to the right, but only in some areas, however rarely if ever to the left.

 

mine always pulls to the right, aligned three times and it is always off...

i just get use to it lol

 

Mines to the right =p

 

Hi All,
Just checked the tire pressure...
They were almost exactly on spec 36 F 30 R...

Guess this is not a tire pressure issue. I guess this is something I will just have to deal with, just as many others are.

I am open to ideas, tho. Let me know if anyone has any other thoughts..

Thanks

 

mine does the same exact thing? i wonder if its common in the 04 sti???

ill try rotating/ check tire pressure and see if that helps.

 

My 07 used to track the road often until i changed the tires from the stockers.

 

stock sti tires sook as far as pulling you around. Pilot sport makes em ride a lot nicer.


You guys realize almost every road is cut angled to the right in order to drain the water off it, right?

 

Ive noticed that mine will slightly pull to whichever way the road is crowned/angled. Same with my old bugeye wagon. I wouldnt worry about it (Im OCD too).

Also - your alignment is pretty tame, try -1.0 to -1.5 degrees camber up front. I have -1.0 camber and the handling/turn in response is improved.

 

Good news! I was able to work out the kinks on my pulling issue. I think my sti is really sensitive to even the slightest difference in PSI from right vs. left tires. My gauge I was using was not easy enough to get an accurate reading from.

I bought a automatic tire inflator from lowes made by black and decker for $34. I was able to set the right and left tires to exactly the same psi. Now the pull to the right is all but eliminated - only a little pull at times due to crowning.

Thanks to all for your help on this!!!

 

The guy I got my newest sti from had put coilovers on it, and the car was still super low mileage. Never got allign. My car pulled just from the tires. I never believed it would feel so strong only because the tires had been worn wrong previously. Swapping them around like crazy and then later wearing em down fixed the problem. Still uncomfortable tires IMO, re70 meh

 

Ha! Almost forgot about that... Good call slow04!

 

i heard cars are aligned to pull to the right just in case driver falls asleep so you dont steer into oncoming traffic?

but maybe a myth.
