Alignment question?
I had dunlop z1 star specs installed two days ago and had an alignment done afterwards just for gm. Now the car pulls to the right I have to give a good constant 3degrees to the left at all times. Now to me the alignment print out looks good. Also I am pretty sure maybe if they had the steering wheel off lets say 3 degrees to the left when they aligned it it would be aligned straight at that steering wheel offset? So they gave me a 6 month 6000 mile warranty I am going to take it back in. I was just wondering if some one could arm me up with some technical lingo.

Numbers look ok and equal L/R
Maybe ask them to measure the front caster too.
Its adjustable.
The car didn't pull at all with the old tires?
Did you check the (cold) tire pressures?
Did they put the right tires on the right wheels? (narrow front, wide rear)
Did they put the wheels in their right place?
Everything torqued down allright?

They didn't do a caster sweep.... if they changed the camber at all it will change the caster...... go back and find out why they didn't measure the caster and your rear total toe high should be closer to .43 witch is the spec......caster should be 6.00 on both sides
