There has to be a way to center the rear wheel, this guy seems to have done so on 18's as well. I don't know much about the Y33 suspension, but a lot of people on the VSC forums swap S13/S14's suspensions in. I'd ask or search over there to see how they fixed it.

i honestly think it is a visual mindf*** or just how the body is made. Bigger wheels would make it less noticeable i guess




and it doesnt seem "centered" in this picture.

The rear wheel is tucking and the front looks higher in that picture though, so the car was probably squatting under acceleration. I'm thinking it's normally centered and moves towards the front of the wheel well under compression, only his is centered with his drop and yours is probably centered at stock height which would explain why yours isn't centered anymore. Have you done any other suspension mods other than the coilovers?

I did a little researching because I was really curious as to how other slammed Y33 owners centered their rear wheels and came across this.

You might want to look more into it, but it appears that traction rods will help center the rear wheels.
