tire pressure?
balancing?
and while you were swapping the wheels from the 4th to the 5th gen did u keep track to make sure the front wheel went on the front and back on the back cuz there might be slightly different wear if you mixed them up

actually...I put 6th gen 18s on my car 3 days ago and my car was pulling to the right. I got an alignment from Sears Auto Center and it still pulls. They re-did the alignment a 2nd time and it still pulls. They told me I need a new camber bolt on the strut...so I got that and it STILL pulls. wtf?

Not that this is the solution to anyone's problem but just some input. Most roads are crowned, meaning at the centerline of the road it's at a higher elevation than the edge of the road so water is able to drain off and not sit in the road. This creates a natural pull to the right. I noticed when going from my Mustang to the Maxima that the pull is more noticeable. Just my 2 cents.

So yea...one of my friends is a tech at nissan and he got the car on the ramp and did an alignment. He is actually the main alignment guy. But no luck, it still pulls. So I dunno...Im going to drop it off tomorrow or thursday with him so he can fully inspect everything. Worn suspension components can cause a car to pull so Im hoping its something like that. But I will post up what happens b/c who knows, maybe you are having the same problem.

Sounds like a tire may have thrown a belt...
