Yes, it does pull to one side quite a bit (can't remember which side though, left at a guess). I don't need to have my hands off the wheel to see, I have to fight the car just to keep it straight at times! Tramlines bad as well (especially when going over painted white lines) but from what I've read on here that's normal with 17" high performance tyres.

BTW, the legal tread is 1.6mm but do you think it is worth changing tyres @ 2.5mm?
