Wheel not balanced right?

[zwack88]

Ok I am wondering if my tire guys didn't balance my wheel right when I had some tires mounted on my steelies for winter wheels. So the other day I swap out my wheels for winter and I go to drive the vic and it pulls to the left now. With my chromes on it would track straight no problem. No wobbles or shimmies with the steelies just a pull. Am I right with this accusation or am I off?

Thanks

Out of balance will not cause a pull. Low/high tire pressure will though.

Maybe they didn't put them all to pressure right. I just assumed they did, my mistake. I will check them when I get off work.

Never EVER assume that. I always check them once I install them on the car. If it still pulls, swap the tires side to side. See what happens.

Yep that was the case. Both fronts were low but equal on both sides but the rears had about a 10 pound difference. Yeah I just ASSumed and it made me paranoid. Next time I know. Thanks.

I never trust tire places-or any auto place anymore. Always expect the worst.

At least it was just something simple.
