Car Pulling To The Right

Just did some spirited driving this morning and as I was exiting the motorway there is a curved off ramp, I'd say about a 40 degree left turn. Decided to try out my new set up (Swift spec r on MR bilstein shocks and 18x10.5 +15 Works, 275/35 tyres) at 120 kph (~75mph) and the car was pulling to the right at two points during the turn. Is this normal? I've been paranoid about the reduced handling ever since I decided to go a bit wider with the wheels.

What's your alignment specs? Have you had an alignment after installing your new suspension setup?

^^^ Agreed just a touch of toe out will make it pull to that side especially under braking.

All tyres are brand new and only have ~200km on them so I'm assuming they're even. Yes, I've had an alignment, will post up the complete alignment spec sheet when I get home.

Was it pulling before the new tires and alignment?

No, it wasn't. I've taken the same turn at similar speeds before but I was running 18x9.5 +20 w/ 265/35 back then.
