Russ0054 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 "Pulling" one way or the other, especially on a brand new car is frequently a radial tire pull. Have someone rotate the front tires from side to side and if the pull either switches to the opposite direction or removes the "pull" you experienced before, it's the tires not the alignment. If the "pull" remains the same, have the dealer do a four wheel alignment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My tires puledl to the left. Lexus will tell you the aligment is done. (I am not sure if Lexus did perform the alighment). Second time they will ask you for a test drive and tell you it is normal tire pull. There is no necessary to do the aligment. I do belive it should be the run-flat tire that causing the problem. My car is currenly pull to left or right depend on the road surface. I am going to change to regular tire. Another GS430 owner already go for its third sets of tire in 30,000 mile.
