My 2001 Jeep grand cherokee just got the 90000 mile tune up, new tires from firestone and an alignment. The jeeps seems to drive rugged and pulls to the left. I think I should have the tired aligned again since it was done before I got new tires and not during the tire change? Could it be the joints or suspension? No noises, a clunk sound when shifting into reverse only, just seems to be a rugged ride, not that pleasing! Thanks for the advice!

A more aggresive tread patern will make the ride suffer.If it didnt pull before the tires and the alignment, I would take it back and have them redo it.Ask for a print out of the alignment too. If you are unhappy with the tires,look to see if they offer a less aggresive tread, something for an SUV would work versus a Light Truck tire
