Fighting Toyo pulling to the right with steering stabilizer?
Hey got 2012 2 door with AEV 3.5" lift. Put a set of new Toyo MT 315/75r16s on a couple months ago and they started pulling right. Finally got fed up and took it back to the tire shop they rotated and balanced, no change. Took it to my dealer for an alignment and found out about the Toyos pulling. They put Toyo MTs on everything on the lot and the service guy said they all pull right. It goes in for tomorrow they figured they might be able to dial it out in the alignment, but my lift doesnt have any adjustable control arms or anything so I'm not holding my breath.
Found a post or two about guys switching to a gas pressurized SS to give it some left pull to fight the tires but there wasnt a lot of info. My AEV kit came with the OME SS, was thinking about switching it to a Bilstein 5100 or the entry level Fox one. As far as I can tell the Fox SS you can adjust the pressure on, although you have to take it apart to do so? I dont think the Fox ATS would do me any good cause the adjustments are for resistance not pressure either way correct? The Bilstein 5100 isnt adjustable, and I'd like to be able to dial in the pressure to where it'll drive straight again.
Any try this with results? My tire shop talked me into the Toyos, I'm a BFG guy and didnt want to wait months for the size to come available again. Wish I'd waited now.

Until you get the gas pressurized steering stabilizer, run the driver front tire at 28 psi and the rest at 30 psi.
The slight drag from having the driver front tire at a slightly lower psi will help offset the drift to the passenger side.
