OK Ventus HRII H405 is a great tire but i will never go through pep boys again. First i wanted 245 40 18 well pep boys instead gave me two front tires that were 245 40. Then the back tires were 225 45 and 235 40. well i bitch at them they had my car for 5 hours. Finnaly get teh right tires, and tehy told me it dosent need an realiigment. well for some strange reason when i let go of the gas my car goes to the right amd it feels unbalanced.
here are some pics
pic 2 very bad pic but it gives you an idea. i will take pics when its sunny out
OK when i drive my car on the highway at 60+ miles per hour. if i let go of teh gas my car goes to the right but when i step on the gas it goes where i want it. For soem reason the car feels unblanced. i might go to pep boys get my money back for the allignment and take it to my dealer to get it done.

Never, ever have stuff you care about worked on at Pep Boys.
However, when you go to management when they've screwed up they'll usually make good.
You may have a brake caliper stuck or dragging on the side your car is pulling to. See if you've got one rotor running way hotter on that side.
Sorry that's not much help but Pep Boys do wheels/tires sort of like you would do writing an English composition textbook.

Take that car straight to the dealer to get a factory balance accomplished as per my thread here (http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=22739)
The procedures are outlined in the factory service manual.
