how so? the actual wheel itself? like wheel width? or do you mean one wheel pokes out more then the other? if so im pretty sure you need a new flca or need to straighten out frame.

this sorry i was alittle messed up last night so it might have not made sense to some people haha but i remember seeing a thread a couple weeks ago (searched and cant find it) and some guy asked the samething people said it happens when your car has been crashed but i have check/fixed everything in my front end i just got done putting a new crossmember and FLCA and tension rods in and it seems that my passanger side wheel sits out more then my driverside wheel i also got a alignment and everything is pretty spot on so what could it be??

Also do you think it would make a difference having 2 different front wheels my front right is a 17x9 +25 and my front left is a 17x9 +22... could it really affect it that much??

Yes. You had the money to get new suspension components, yet failed to get two of the same wheel up front?

PS: Please use the period. You didn't use a single one. Helps reading your issues a little better, and I'm being nice.

and no long story short crashed my car on the left side and had 2 different wheels on the left side, different front and backs, so with them all messed up i had 2 extra same wheels at my house so i threw them on the back and only had 1 other matching wheel to the ones in the back. So with that said i used the good one of the other set of wheels just so i could get the car back together and runnning and everything, so now its all good and running just waiting on some RUCAs but i have 2 different front wheels for now but i didnt think that +3 offset would affect it that crazy... so with that said is that my only problem? a +3 offset making my car look messed up?


and sorry about the period thing i dont really use them that much

thanks for the help thow

^What he said, offsets do affect how they look.

The rears always seem look like they are sunk compared to the front if you have dropped the car and haven't gotten some RUCAs.

You posted the same picture. And I thought it was understood that 240's dont have equal sides.

Why is it when you call someone out for being a fucking retard, they think youre an online badass?

Maybe, just maybe, you should step back and realize how fucking stupid you are before you post. No worries though, you're not the only one, I promise.

Threads like this are awesome. Dude basically stands on a box and yells "hey everyone, come and see how retarded I am!!!!!"

1. Just about NO car is perfectly symmetrical. All the little things add up, from the bolt holes on the engine x-member not being perfectly centered, to the alignment, to the fenders, it's extremely common for a car to be slightly off from one side to the other.

2. Once you start crashing things, it's LESS likely to match up perfectly.

3. You have two different sized wheels.

The fact that you couldn't figure out #2 & #3 is the reason people are making fun of you.

drives a BMW, can't figure out why his mismatched wheels don't line up after he crashed his car. Congratulations, you are a douchebag.

ur a idiot if you would have read the thread i said i know that my wheels are mismatched and knew it would make a difference but i didnt think that 03+ of a offset would make this much difference and that turned out not to be the problem so your the douchebag in my book *snip
