it's wierd because i noticed that too, yet i wasn't sure what to do about it, i just noticed it today when i threw these on for all of 5 minutes before i realized it was rubbing on the one side in the back (drivers side) and I don't have the slightest clue as to why it would be un-centered like that! thanks for pointing that out, can someone suggest a solution?

i know its somewhere in the 4th gen section, i believe one of those autoXing guys was also talking about the beam alignment in the suspension setups

car looks pretty good, ".org classic" style. fitment would be pretty sick if it was intentional and the tires were more narrow.

damn, that's without spacers? I didn't realize how much more room the 5th gens have back there than ya'll. Looks excellent, but yeah I don't see that working...first bump you hit will rub.
