88 Mk2 GTi 8v suspension issue
« on: 01 May 2012, 22:48 »
hey can somebody help?
I have been messing with the car again lol
just noticed that the rear wheel on the drivers side is further back in the arch than the passenger side.
by sat back I mean closer to the rear bumper than the rear door
My car is a 5 door model if that makes a difference

That was done at factory the shells were dropped roughly at height ontop of the chassis running gear, then bolted up.
These discrepencies are common and load of people come on here notice only when they stick bigger alloys and is closer to the arches. IMO its normal and live with it  :rolleyes:
