steering pull =[ helpz

What would cause the car to pull from side to side sometimes ? If I let go of the steering wheel it tends to lean a bit one way or another, i think mostly to the right, maybe just to the right. But I just got new lower ball joints on both sides and new tires and rims. =/ ne ideas?

"Pull" on a car with a correct alignment is due to the tires about 90% of the time. The other 10% of the time, it's the tires.

Exchange the 2 front tires and see if it's any different (pulls to the other side).

If it just started after the ball joints then it was probably a restult of that. An alignment should fix things up.
