New Rims

jchr96gt · May 23rd, 2009, 02:29 AM

Bought a set of four bullits with tires for 100 and painted them black myself.
Tires have thread on them left and i finally put em on myself today. When i was going for a test drive my steering wheel would go more to the right..trying to figure out if its the alignement?or is it just bad tires..?

all have different four sets of tires..and once i put the rims on my steering wheel started goo more to the left...alingment or tire replacement?

mustangracer2g · May 24th, 2009, 12:03 AM

so all four of the tires are diff brands? or sizes? or what? are they evenly worn? i would recommend checkin the pressure in the tires, then driving it again, after that, check to see if you can get them balanced. if that doesnt work... then i dont know what to say, if you werent having this problem before you replaced the rims/tires?

all same size,thread are about equal good thread on back and bad thread on front .

when i had my stock rims n tires i didnt have a problem.might check the pressure if not balance or alignment scared to risk one and its the other.

Just to be sure that isnt a bent rim switch your front to the rear cuz imo those rims were very cheap....
