Iv'e recently got a 94 2.2 petrol mint condition pickup, problem is it steers more or less where it wants to, have checked all the joints & nothings bent, the one thing it does have is bigger wheels off a landcruiser, 275/70/16, would this cause any problems?

Yes having the bigger tires will effect your alignment. You most will have to pay and have your vehicle realigned at a shop.

Please explain how having larger tires affect the alignment? You are not messing with the geometry of the suspension in anyway, all you are doing is maybe increasing the total height of the truck. Only if you put a lift or things like that will you need an alignment.
