What could be causing it?..

When a spring broke before christmas, my 2.2DTi started pulling wildly to the right. Once the spring was replaced it still pulled so I had the tracking done. It still pulled so I checked all the tyre pressures and inflated them to an even pressure but it's still pulling to the right! Granted, its not as bad as t was but its still not right! When I was doing the discs and pads last month, I noticed that both tyres on the n/s have excessive wear on the inner edge so I'm assuming this problem is an on going one and rather than fix it the wheels have just been swapped.

Could this pull now be caused by the wear on the n/s tyres or is it possible there's another issue?

anyone?

absolutely, excessive wear on the inner edge and good tread on the outer edge and you have a tyre that is not laying level on the road surface, if you were to roll a wheel (off the car) around a corner you have to tilt it, this is whats happening with yours on the car. i have had this before a few times, if the wear on one edge is bad enough the pull to one side can be quite hard and the longer you leave it the more rapid the wear will be.
