odd behavior after rotating tires
i rotated my tires over the weekend. now my car pulls to the right:
now, in detail
going down the road, put it in neutral, let go of wheel, pulls "slightly" right - normal to me..
BUT...
if i'm going down the road (any speed), and press the gas(not stomp it, just press like normal), it pulls right pretty bad to the right.... never done/noticed this before - i know about torque steer... but... i can be running 45, hit the gas to go... car wants to turn into the next available driveway...

i would start with tire pressures, then check the tread to make sure there isn't any unusual wear patterns. failing that, most tire places will give you an alignment check for free. might be worth it just to pull some numbers and make sure everything is balanced left-right. it would not be unusual for your alignment to go out, and the tires wear to compensate.

tire pressure is all the same... front driverside tire was worn more compared to other front tire (its on the back now though), but it was an even wear across tire... going to get it aligned

been doing some think'n.. could the problem link back to my lsd>? driver side tire "pulling" more than the passenger side? would explain the "coasting" straight... but under power pulling right... left tire is getting more power, is there a way to test this?
