sometimes, tires can cause pull. its called radial pull. try swapping the wheels across. (switch em) and see if it goes away.

Check for bent linkages, if you don't tell us what kind of "aftermarket" arms they are, and you mention Megan, you probably don't know and they're some shitty ebay brand. I'd start there.

How hard is it to type "THE" or "THAT?"

I know it's the intraweborz, but jees, make yourself sound like an idiot.

to da left, to da left, everything you own in a box to da left... of ur car, then the weight will balance & ur car will go straight.

on a more serious note:
- drifting, blow tire, skid 50 ft w/ no tire = you blow'd something up more than just the tire.
- check your arms & shocks & pretty much everything connected to the suspension again.
- did you check the condition of your tires or tried rotating them?
- tried putting on different wheels (your rim w/ the tire blow out could be out of round now, causing weird stuff to happen)

Obviously, when stuff gets screwed up, the best course of action is to leaving anything that could have been damaged out of the equation.

You said you did an alignment - no help, then aftermarket ruca's, etc - no help

Did you get an alignment again after changing out the whatever suspension components you did after?

For the alignment, did the shop do a 4 wheel alignment & give you a printout w/ the thrust angle? scan/take a picture/post results of the alignment.

Maybe even take pictures of your suspension components (each corner of the car & from different angles) - maybe someone will be able to spot something you missed.

Don't confuse the man with your proper spelling and grammar and technical talk....
