Default KYB classic 18s help!!!

Hi just fitted some new 18" on my 96 classic, the suspension is KYB with 35mm lowering springs and the car is pulling badly to the right. i got lazer alignment done yesterday whcih has made a small diff, am thinking its got something to do with the KYB shocks and maybe the camber ajustable bolts???

any ideas guys?? also anybody know where in aberdeen i could get a full geometry check done????


thanks!!

forgot to mention heaps more break dust on the right front ally and none on the left!!!????

Pulling to the right would suggest you D/S front caliper to me!
