Hi

i have a problem with the front left tire.
the tire is rubbing the fender while cornering, intact the whole tire looks like it a bit out side the fender compared to the right side.
more information: the gap between the tire and the fender (left side) is more than the right one.

Is this something that just happened or have you been driving the car like this since you purchased the car.

since i purchased the car

first I would check the tyre sizes are the same,if they are the same size
make sure they are the same brand and model and have the same amount of tread left.

if you are happy the tyres are the same,i would then check the wheels are same
width and offset (et) ,this will be stamped on the back of the wheel and only visible by removing the wheel.

if everything looks ok wheel wise,you may have a suspension problem or the car could have worn shock absorbers.

Probably best you get it checked out by a reliable mechanic if you cannot see the problem
good luck

thank you for your reply.
tires are new, same brand, all same size, Wheels the same.
shock absorbers are new as well, springs are new too.

i asked many mechanics for that, and it led me to change the springs, absorbers and bushing. all for nothing.

i even checked if the car had accident and fixed in a bad way but it is not, it even still have the factory paint both in the engine booth and underneath.

i will be adding photo's later on to show the problem exactly

in the bottom picture the tyre looks nearly flat and the rim looks damagad.

the rim was damaged recently (last Friday)

have you had an alignment done on the front wheels or tracking adjusted( same thing),
does it drive straight or shake through the steering wheel?

ElieSednawi

All correct and the car go straight
