Pull to the right...

Pull to the right...
This is the second time I've noticed this. As soon as I put the new Goodyear Fortera tires on the truck it seems to make it drift to the right with no hands on the steering wheel. Is this normal? Does the truck just want to follow the crown of the road?

RE: Pull to the right...
I went to a wider tire. Instead of a 245 70 17.........a 265 70 17 ...is this the reason for the pull? Do I need camber adjustment to offset this pull? Funny thing is it didn't pull with the factory tires on. New tires....made it pull/....I'm almost positive. Has anyone else experienced this?

nevermind....took the tires back....got refund....put factory tires back on and problem gone!
Goodyear tires often have radiul pulls.....this is twice now.....no more Goodyear!!!!!!!!!!Never again!

RE: Pull to the right...
first thing to check on this is the tire pressure... then take it in for alignment if that doesnt help. but as of goin higher in tire size changing your camber... not sure but it would make sense... should go BFG all terrain, never had a problem with those. just for future reference

You could have the tires balance with a road force balancer and straighttrack.

RE: Pull to the right...
yes, goodyear tires - good tires! - do have tendency for radial pull. agreed. based on practical experience.
btw, on practical note: overinflate tires and see what happens. if pull's gone, it's radial pull indeed. then just follow protocol to find out which one is it. manufacturer's fault, but they will stand behind it only, usually, up to 25% tire treads wear. so don't let it fly too late.
