Tire experts please advise

Just bought new tires for the Carrera and it seems to pull to the left now and the steering wheel is off center to the right slightly. I never noticed it before since I don't drive the car much. I'll have to ask my wife if she's noticed it. Could poor mounting and balancing be the cause though? Thanks.

if it didnt pull before the tires, cross rotate (left front to right front) to check for radial pull. if the car pulls the opposite way then you have a bad tire. mounting the tire can sometimes damage the tire bead, usually you will notice a bubble or deformation on the sidewall. good luck ,louie
