Default :confused:Steering Issue

I wasn't sure where to post this, but figured this would be the place.

So my car constantly pulls to the left. My alignment is near perfect, but it still pulls pretty badly to the left. I put on used front tires (had to save $) and was told that if the driver side front tire is more worn than the passenger, than this could happen. But visually, nothings seems uneven between the two.

This is a V6-LS1 swapped car, and I have HORRIBLE stock shocks and springs on it. Could it be the front driverside shock is sagging or something more than the other? But then again, visually the car seems completely even from every angle.

Anybody have any ideas or experience with this? Thanks!

if the align is good ( can you post up the align specs ?)to help locate problem cross only the front tires( EVEN IF THEY ARE DIRICTRAL- you can run then backwards fo a short time) if problem is a tire the pull will be more or less, it will not remain the same, if crossing the front does not make a change, put the front back same place and cross the rear, some times the rear tires will push the front around
