Alignment question
2014 Base model w/15K miles. Drove straight as an arrow since new. no tire wear problems. Installed AS3 RF's. Immediate slight but noticeable pull to right even on flat roads. WHY?? (note: perfectly Balanced to 90+ mph). Getting alignment but what should I look for initially.

I would look first at the 'cross camber' and 'cross caster' values vs spec. If these are off, then it might cause some pull.
I also went from PSS to AS3+ but didn't notice any pull. I did have an alignment this past week as a prevention for tire wear, and the cross camber was slightly out of spec, as well as caster on the right wheel.

There is a 4 lane divided highway at the end of our street. A number of 18 wheelers and heavy log trucks travel in the right lane. Not visible, but in a ~4 mile section they have worn ridges in the right lane and the wide Grand Sport tires are always moving the car around. I drive in the left lane when traffic permits. Different tires grab differently on the outside treads.
