Re: alignment ???

It sounds like you have a combination of misalignment and radial pull.

Radial pull is where the pair of tires are not properly matched to each other and the net effect is that tires - as a pair - are pushing sideways.

If the tires were pretty new, you could take them back and get an adjustment, but since it is possible to develop this by a wear pattern caused by misalignment, you probably can't fix this 100% without replacing the tires.

Hope this helps.
