Tire Pull?

[PaHumBug]

I've had these tires for a while and rotated them several times, never had this issue until now. And it wasn't pulling before they messed with it. Grrr.

So I just heard from them. They are sticking with the tire pull excuse, but also said it's because of the road crown. BUT, they swapped the tires and it still pulls to the left. AND, road crown would make it go to the right. They said they only adjusted the toe in on it the first time, didn't touch camber or anything else. I told them I wasn't buying it, and they told me to come out and go for a ride with the tech. Thoughts?

Sounds like they're having a hard time alligning it or whoever is doing it is unfamiliar with the fact that it's an AWD All the time, the toe degree of a AWD and a 4x4 (which is RWD until you engage the fronts) is different since the front tires are always pulling forward, so the AWD degree is wider then a normal 4x4.... like this: \---/ sorta speak...........so when the truck is in motion the toe zero themselves to be perfectly alligned going down the road.
This is the case with especially lifted BIG trucks/tires.

At least this is what my offroad shop told me, I have the same size tires and one thing I've learned over the years that I gotta take my rig to only people who know about them (offroad shops), regular allignment shops or just about anything else other than an oil change they know nothing about and it's worthless wasting time and money with them.

That's just my $0.02.

I had the same problem. It was a defect in the tire. Replaced the tire problem went away.

I had the same issue with my M5. I thought it was BMW dealer BS, but they said the sidewall had weakened on one of the Michelin PS2s, so they replaced it and I kept it as a spare and bought a wheel for it. Not many high performance cars come with spare tires any more. A year later I had to use the spare on the right front and sure enough it was pulling again - they weren't BSing me!

I found a shop in a nearby town that specializes in lifted trucks. Should I take it there for peace of mind? You guys have me believing the GM guy now.

I would...
