car veering right, even after alignment.
hey guys. i have a big problem. i have aligned my car a few times and it feels good for a day or two but them it veers off to the right. I believe it could be the camber and i was thinking of getting camber plates for my suspension ( stock struts with swift springs ) and push it back even. but i do not know whats happening and it looks like my car has a bit of camber so that would be the reasoning to why it is turning right.
so could i get input on your thoughts?

Well when you have stock struts like that the camber and caster etc is very hard to adjust. Most likely what they did for you want align it as close as they could..
I would check tire preasure as well as tire wear as those also affect how the car is aligned and how it drives...

Adjust tire pressure in front right to 36 psi and front left to 32. See if that helps. Also did the alingment guy set the car for road crown. Adjusting the air pressure should stop the pulling. Tire wear can be a big problem. What do they look like, What are the alignment specs u have now.

Post your alignment specs where your vehicle is at now. They should have printed that sheet for you. Hard to say whats going on without knowing where your settings are at. It could be your toe causing a pull, caster, camber, or combination of things. If you say your alignment settings keep changing maybe you have bad bushings.
