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 t

I found that the top bushings in the front suspension are pretty much worthless when they are made of the stock material. I went to urethane for the upper control arm bushings - this greatly stabili

I have the reversed situation. My driver's side wheels protrude maybe 1/2 inch more. Car is a'71, it has had a paint job, I do not know if body was off. I did not notice this until I replaced 185/15

this is quite likely. my car didn't quite sit straight, and we finally traced it to that exact problem (front suspension misassembled) _______________________________________________ Support Team.Net

I learned the hard way that 205 X 65 X 16 inch Dunlop signature tires will rub the fender on my 1970 TR 6 when the spring is fully depressed. I was backing out of my driveway with the steering wheel

I have seen those wheels listed with different offsets. Are you sure all four wheels have the same offset? Mike munson --Original Message-- _______________________________________________ Support Tea

Good one. That had not occurred to me. Seems like a distinct possibility. Vance Vance Navarrette Cogito Ergo Zoom I think, therefore I go fast I have seen those wheels listed with different offsets.

Kendall--I'm guessing that both front and rear tires stick out farther on the passenger side? And not noticed when using the stock wheels. Assuming that the shippers didn't send you two wheels with d

I suspect that your suspicions about the body simply not being centered on the chassis are correct. Mine is off a bit, after having done a body-off, and I have 16x7 Panasports with no interference p

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 i

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 f

It is very difficult to tell from the pictures, but the upper control arms *SEEM* to be assembled correctly. That does not mean the bottom control arms are assembled correctly since they are not vis

My 6 was hit sometime in the DPO past. Several small creases in the frame on passenger side. There were 5-6 shims on one side, none on the other, camber wasn't correct. The alignment shop said the fr
