New wheels/alignment issue

Had some new wheels and tires installed recently and the car is pulling to the right ever since. Went back to the alignment guy and he explained that the car is aligned correctly and that I could have a 'tire pull'. He explained sometimes a tire will pull to a side and the way to fix it usually is to just switch the tires. But I have directional tires and that wont work. Does this 'tire pull' sound accurate?? Should I take it into the dealer and check the alignment?

Yes. And even though your tires are directionla you can have them dismounted and swapped

Just for the sake of figuring out the problem you can cross them and see if it goes away, or if not a staggard set up, swap one side, f to r.

Radial tire pull should be warrantied thru the tire manufacturer withing the 1st 2/32's of rubber.
