    In unity4, the cars I made using the wheel collider worked fine. I have started a new project in unity5 to see if I can make a car with the new wheel colliders. My wheel colliders are facing the same way as the car, but they don't move in that direction. (Does that make any sense?)

    Attached is a screenshot of the car. Wheels.PNG
    As you can see the wheels are facing the right direction. When I put force on the car it moves sideways.

    This might have a simple answer to it but I cant find it.
    Thanks in Advance!

    youre putting force on the car, or using wheel collider torque?

    I have no scripts attached to the car. The only force that would act on it would be gravity.

    scripts being attached to the car is irrelevant. You're applying force somehow based on your own statement.
