If you have different wheels/tyres, this also makes a difference.

very few roads are perfectly flat

find a nice smooth level road and cruise along at different speeds.

Try accelerating/breaking and see if the car pulls to one side.

If it definitely doesnt feel right then check joints, arms, bushes etc and if all seems fine get the 4 wheel alignment done.

If still not fixed your chassis is probably twisted just kiddin

lol @ the chassis!

check different tyre pressure as well. And check that you have all 4 wheels on too, i was wondering why i was veering off to the left the other day and it was because my front right tyre was totally flat..
