Hullos, one set should be less than $10 if I'm not wrong. Tuning your front wheels straight? You mean your car doesn't go in a straight line? If no matter how you tune your steering servo straight and the car still doesn't go straight, it may mean that your wheels/tyres are out of true, or one side of your transmission is not spinning as smoothly as the other side, or the chassis may be warped.

No prob. Want to meet us next Sat then we can take a look to see what's wrong?

Check your transmission to see if its binding anywhere. Sometimes if one side of your chassis is heavier than the other (e.g. right side heavier than left), your car will veer to the lighter side since more weight is placed on the tyres on the heavier side, therefore more grip on that side.

E.g. right heavier than left, car will veer to the left.
