my s13 pulls to the right with new coilovers.

I just installed my coilvers this past weekend and my car now pulls hard to the right. I went to the tire spot and the did a 4 tire alighnment. the car feels a lot smoother down the rd. But still pulls to the right if I let go of steering wheel. Its not too bad but I'm afraid its gonna f up my brand new tires. (Happen to me before). I'm thinking about going back to the shop and have then take another look at it. Any 1 else have any ideas why its pulling?
Thanks guys

This might sound stupid but are you sure that both sides are the same ride height?

Might be something as simple as that.

idk

Have you checked tire pressure and size to make sure they match?

Take it back to the alignment shop and tell them they need to fix it.
