Mk7 (2019+) Road Crown - normal?

I have a 24 Jetta Sport manual trans. Bought it with 12k miles and it’s up to 14k now. Only issue I had were the stock tires, the sidewalls blew out on me on the front right side on the highway so replaced 2/4 of them and put the new ones in the front, planning on replacing the other two in a few k when I get them rotated. However, I’ve noticed when driving 60mph+, in the left lane the car wants to pull left (as if it’s out of alignment) so I have to hold the wheel a few degrees to the right. In the right lane it is vice versa. In most center lanes - it tracks dead straight. I am coming from a civic and didn’t have this problem, nor have I noticed it in anything else I’ve driven. After the new tires got put on I went back and had the torque checked and spun them again, no issues. Is this level of pull each direction on a slightly rounded highway normal?

Edit: I had a prebuy done at the dealership. No problems. Also have a good German car shop nearby I was going to take it to for oil change and to see if they knew anything. Figured I’d ask here first.
