In the pictures of your suspension that show the inner fenders, it
appears to me that the body is not centered on the frame. This may be just the
angle of the pictures. Have you measured, from the frame rail to the lower lip
of each fender to see if it is the same?

I checked
the offset of the two front wheels and they were both the same. (at 11.5cm)
Also uploaded some pics of my suspension. Take a look if you're able to tell
just by looking at the pictures if it is installed wrong. The car did have
front end damage at one point in its life so it's very likely that it just
wasn't straightened properly.

Mike.
Good one. That had not occurred
to me. Seems like a distinct possibility.

I have seen those
wheels listed with different offsets. Are you sure all four
wheels have the
same offset?

>Hi
Listers,
>There's a disturbing lack of symmetry that was made apparent with
the wider
(16x7) wheels. The passenger side sticks out more than half inch
further than
on the driver side. Not sure if the body just isn't on straight
or if the
suspension is just borked or what. Looks like the tire will
definitely make
contact with the fender if I hit a big bump on the road. Any
ideas on how to
resolve?
