AIR PRESSURE! CHECK YOUR AIR PRESSURE!

If my front tires are 3-5psia different in pressure, the car will pull hard to the low side!

If both tires are low, it will be more suceptible to tramlining.

I know this because I had a slow leak in one tire for a while, and I always knew when to add air because the car would behave as if the alignment were off.

Mine does this with the fat front tire setup on it but not with the drag tires and skinnies.I gotta say it's tires.

And don't forget, if anyone here still has the POS Decarbon shocks, you are in dire need of replacement of higher quality shocks as well.

but first, tyre pressures and alignment, then replace worn parts accordingly.
