    Mine pulls to the left, has since day 1. I feel it on the highway. I read somewhere on here that our trucks have a bit of a lean due to component weight favoring the driver's side. This could have something to do with it.

    getting there....
    my truck....i consider to be the wandering king. try adjusting the air in your tires....it should help. other than that, it may need an alignment. i needed one when i first got my truck. adjusting the air in the tires will help alot though.

    My TAcoma needs constant attention to the wheel. I was told it was because of the 20" Enkei wheels and low profile tires. IDK!!!:confused:

    Relentless Armored! Too many others to list.
    wider tires and a wider offset on the wheels will attribute to some wandering from irregularities in the road surface. my truck with my coopers and Raceline wheels tends to wander on the grooves in the road(from studded tires), but when i had the factory wheels with studded tires my truck didnt do it nearly as much.
