Have you adjusted your chain lately?
Check your rear wheel alignment.

I just put new tires on today they are equal on the scale should I make them on even to compensate?

The scales are not always accurate, each bike can/will be different.
If you have determined some time in the past that yours are accurate, that's OK, but you could be off by about 1/4 of one of those marks. It would be hard to see, yet make enough of a difference to notice at the handlebars.
That is one of those adjustments that I don't miss. I will happily put up with a heavier bike on which I can not change the final drive ratio for the convenience of less overall maintenance.

Do you sit offset without realizing it? My bike steers to one side if I let the bars go. But after experimenting I've figured out it's just that I favor putting my right foot down at stops so I sit offset on the bike but it feels like I sit balanced.

Darn, with so many daily riders it's hard to decide which one to jump on next.;)
