I just put new tyrees on my car. The guys at the service center said that there was no need for an Alingment . I noticed that the car was not pulling to the left as it was with the old tyres but it was going slightly to the right at high speeds. I also noticed a a new noise not there earlier at speeds of over 100 Kmph. The noise was like a steady whoooo kind of wind noise.Any suggestions on what to do please.

Hi there,

it is always a good idea to get an alignment done with new tyres, the noise may be the new tyres bedding in or even an alignment issue, i would also check the tyre pressures as well.
