Question Steering returns past center

Hello all
I have a 96 grand cherokee, after turning right and trying to self center
it goes past center and I have to correct by aprox 1/2 turn back to right.
It only happens on right turns, there is minimal wander traveling straight,
Also the front driver side tyre (UK)is wearing on the outer sides rapidly and I get tyre squeal at when turning even at a slow speed.

Any help is welcome
Thanks EDDY

Get the alignment checked out, a tire could also cause a pull because of low air pressure or seperated belts.
