Lead/Pull Description



Lead/Pull Description

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


Lead/pull is usually caused by the following factors.

* Tyre Construction
* Wheel Alignment
* Unbalanced Steering Gear


The way in which a tyre is built may produce lead/pull.


The rear tyres will not cause lead.
