I put my new rims on about a month ago, within the past week I noticed my car starts pulling to the right. Its never really done that before. Before I put my rims on I used to be able to let go of the wheel and go in a straight line for a long time. Is it possible I just need a wheel alignment?

maybe, get a digital alignment if you havent done one in a while. make sure your tires are balanced.

New tires I am assuming? If not check for wear on the right, could cuase a pulling and also when you put new rims on its usually reccomended to get an alignment...(I used to work at Wheel Works)

Check your tire pressure too. my front right gets low quick, and causes the car to pull.

swap them right to left or front to rear, could be a bad tire, even if its new. if the pull changes, make them replace the tire, I once had 3 out of 4 michelins go bad and pull.
