Default why its not inside?!

look guys, the first twp pictures is on the passenger side of my car, the wheels are inside the fenders and will be cooler when i lower it, but i cant do that cuz on the other side the wheels will hit with the fenders. what should i do to make all the wheels inside and not hit the fenders. font tires are 205/45, the back tires 205/50

the passenger side


driver side

are you sure the offset on those wheels is right? i dont know much about it but i think the offset for our cars is somewhat unique.. like 40mm or something.

i don't know how out your alignment is either, but if its right on, you could flare your fenders like the autocross guys do.

has your car been hit? i know something like that would probably happen on my car. the previous owner must have gotten in a wreck in my car, and then taken it to uncle bob's car fixin barn for body work, so nothing lines up right.

no, they didnt do a good job. but with a hit like that, i wonder why you even bothered, and then at this point wonder why the wheel is pushed out.

try rotating some wheels around, if you bought them used maybe the original owner had different offsets for front and rear and you got them side to side instead...just a thought

whoa.. your answer lies in that picture. if that is the same car.. there is no recovery from a hit like that.

your next step might be to take it to a body shop and have them put it on a frame puller.. that may help your problem. that car probably wont be normal ever again though.
