The car tracks sort of straight now, but I noticed that it has a lot to do with the road that I'm driving on everyday. Sometimes it pulls right, sometimes left, I verified it with my wife's car which pulls in the same directions traveling on the same road. I can't say I'm 100% happy with the Contis but I learned to live with it as I just don't have the time and energy to go back and forth between the dealer and Discount Tire. After reading your story, I will definitely go with the Michelin's the next time around.

Thanks for sharing.
That's the crowning on the road causing your drift now. Any tire will do that to some extent.

I have the Conti's and couldn't be happier.
