Tramling

Tramling may be the reason why your car pulls to the left or right. I can always duplicate this phenomenon, but I never knew what to call it until today.

This is actually called "tramlining". It's when the car tends to follow the ruts in the road. It becomes more pronounced with larger diameter wheels/lower profile tires.
