my n/s wheel need help

[Baxter]

i fitted my alloys about 3 weeks ago, Dezent 15" Type E's with 195/50-15 on, and a few days ago just looking round it i found that the n/s front wheel sticks out about 1" than all the other wheels, iv been round and looked at the marking to see if the alloy where the same size and they where!

is there any like spacers i dont know about? as it being droped 60mm next weekend and the wheel sticks out that far it will hit the top

Could it be something to do with the supension being bent?:confused:

[Gregg]

might sound soft
check its aligned and tightened correctly

other than that, maybe cv joints, arms, could be anything

well iv got some apex shox and 60mm springs, here but i dont want to put them on, just incase its the wheel and as i drop it it might snap the arch off

Thats what i was thinking mate :confused:

[GRAY]

the only thing i can think of mate is the off set of the wheel is wrong. :(

thats what corsanova_mark on novaload says,

say the alloy is 45 off set can you put a 50 wheel on it?

[Gregg]

?????

it might be that its not machined right, best bet go nack to where u bought em, show em on the car and ask em whats up wiv em

thats what i mean, all the tyres say 195/50-15, but can yet get an alloy off set to say 45 and have a 50 off set tyre on it?

Its nout to do with tyre its the offset of the actual wheels thats probably the problem, ie the fitment for the wheel, it looks like the wheel sits to far out from the hub which is determined by the offset not he 45 or 50 u are on about which im guessing is the profile of the tyres, I know thats a shit explanation hope it helps though:)

the offset (e.t) of a nova should be about 43 to 49. 49 perfect i think.i think thats wat it should be for a nova.i think ull find the shop sold u some dodgy wheels so go and spank em lol
