Upper Front Passanger Control Arm Bolt Hitting Tire? Why?
I just switched to different 20” rims and now I have the passanger side upper control arm hitting my tire? The driver side is fine and has plenty of room. My other rims are 20’s with the same exact size tires. Why would one side be hitting and the other side not? The two pictures are of the hitting (passanger) side first and then the driver side (not hitting). Any suggestions?
I believe they are different because the calipers are basically hitting the rim. The rear wheels are fine. I will probably need spacers. It just seems like a lot of space. Do you know what a safe size would be? How big do they come?
If you swap the wheels left to right does it still happen the same way? There shouldn't be a difference in height from hub to control arm bolt unless the spindle is bent or damaged.
