In the past few months in highway driving I notice the vehicles pulls to the right when I take my hands off the steering wheel.

I suspect this is likely associated with 1) the tires and/or 2) the front end alignment.

I got DJ's alignment specs for toe, caster and camber.

Questions :
1) Have I correctly narrowed down th issue to tires/alignment?YES
2) The tires are within 5K miles of the end of their useful life , MINE ONLY LASTED 22K miles
3) Should I postpone having alignment work performed until I get new tires ? ( i.e. would the alignment have to be re-performed with the new set of tires?)
I would rotate the tires to get rid of the pull until you put new ones on. Then have it aligned with the new tires.
My thought is the original Dunlop tires could possibly be the issue and a new set of tires may eliminate or reduce the problem.Good IDEA AND assumption
Anyways- any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

ALSO - Any suggestions for a shop in Houston Texas to perform a good alignment ? Or should I take to the Toyota dealer ?Sorry I live In LAS VEGAS.
Someone else will have to help ya in TEXAS.
Thanks- GNB

Have a great weekend
