forgot to tell you this part, i think this caused it. you know the 2 screws that hold the rotors ?? it was a PAIN in the azz to take that out, i could not unscrew it, use all kind of shit. What i did was take a srew driver and a hammer. I hammer it at an angle so it can unscrew, took about 15 mins for each rotors.... that must be it huh?

if you just installed the new wheels, it might be that. when i put my 18 inch in with new tires, the car pull to the right a lil, which didnt happened b4. i went for an alightment, and they said everything is centered, but the car still pull to the right. i read on the tirerack that some brand and model tires cause this behavior.

also, to remove the two screws in the rotor, you need an impact screw driver.
