I've noticed the left rear tire rubbing the fender on occasion.
The right has a little more than 1/2 inch of room. The left has less than 1/4 inch. Is this difference normal? Or an indication of a problem I should be looking into. 195x50 tires. No spacers. The car seems to sit level. Wheels are cambered and toed the same. |

Hate to point out the obvious, but it's a 35 year old car. If it's not an alignment issue, look for evidence of bodywork. There's no telling what kind of damage this thing has seen (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
I had a similar issue on mine. I measured the distance from the fender lip to the longitudinals at 3" spaces all around the fender well and corrected the bad fender with a small scissor jack and a couple of straps of plywood to reduce scarring. Cracked the heck out of the paint, but it needed paint anyway. |
