Pull to the right question
For all of you that have larger tires, 35 and above, are you getting a pull to the right on crowned roads. I have a mild pull to the right on certain roads. On completely flat parking lots, etc, I am going fairly straight. I have some camber that is barely out of spec, and my castor is slightly more on the right than left. Is the funky pattern on the MTR to blame, or do larger tires just hug the crowned roads more?

My camber is like if I remember -0.7 on left and -0.35 on right. Castor is 4.69 on right and 4.4 on left. Cross camber is actually spot on and so is cross castor. Thrust angle is within spec. Toe is ~0.2 right and left.

Then from those numbers, if you have a pull on straight level ground, it ain't the alignment.

I also have goodyear MTR's 35X12.50X17. Noticed a slight pull to the right also right after they were installed. I didn't have a pull to the right with the stock tires. I checked to see that the tire pressure was okay. Took jeep in and had them check alignment at local Les Schwabs they said alignment was spot on. They even rotated the tires. I still have a slight pull to the right. I THINK IT IS A QURKy nature of the new MTR tread pattern.
