Hi,

I was looking at the gap I have either side of my tyres, to check how much bigger, offsets etc, that I need for 17 inch wheels.

Using a straight edge (I used a straight piece of wood) I put it up against the try sidewalls top and bottom, and so that it reaches to top wheel arch (I think you call it a fender?) anyway the gap from the outside of the tyre to the edge of the front wings were both 10 mm.
But on the rear, the right hand side (as if sitting in the car) has 18mm gap, but the left hand side has only 12mm gap WTF.

Is anyone elses rear end have different size gaps?

 

Everybody has the same...it's because the way the t-bar housing is attached to the body.T-bar housing has round bolt holes on both sides,but there's oval hole on the left side of the body,so all the play goes to the left.

 

My wife's rear end is shaped kind of odd. Oh snap, you mean the car.
