okay i just had an alignment done last weekend. steering wheel is finally straight and car seems straight. i got my wheels re-balanced and rotated. i put on my old rotors because i think the fronts got warped. anyways i want my car to drive straight but it still drifts a tad to the right if i let go the steering wheel for more than 5 seconds...what is causing this. myth or fact about the crown of the road is slightly right and causes cars to drift? my gf's accord stays straight, why cant my celica???

Our cars require 4 wheel alignments because they have INDEPENDENT rear suspension. So your rear alignment should be fine, jaws.

yeah and i'm gonna take it back and see what they say.. .i'm just worried they will say the front is fine.. but I know when I had the bags installed they adjusted the rear.. but after i got springs, the guy said they dont mess with the rear so IDK if its still off from when I had the bags..


idk.
