mine still leans. I just ignore it and make sure to rotate my tires often.
I should just get coilovers.

My car generally pulled to the left...i have to keep my steering wheel to the right to have it go straight. I got an alignment job at Pep Boys and it was the same thing. Then i was involved in a car accident, my left front strut was replaced by an OEM piece and the same thing is happening...i believe i have a Leaning issue as well.. I never noticed it leaning...if i did..i figured the road was tilted or something. I've been ignoring the situation until you guys brought it up. But im clueless as to how this is happening. My mom has an 02 ES and her car runs absolutely perfect at 56k miles. I only have 15k

I don't have any lean problems. I know old chevy trucks used to have lean to them because the gastank was on 1 side of the truck and with a full tank it would lean up to 1inch(the chevy lean).
