Lead/Pull Description

Lead/Pull Description 

At a constant highway speed on a typical straight road, lead/pull is the amount of effort required at the steering wheel to maintain the vehicle's straight
path.

Lead/pull is usually caused by these factors:
^

Tire construction

^

Wheel alignment

^

Unbalanced steering gear

The way in which a tire is built may produce lead/pull. The rear tires will not cause lead.
