Front tire sticks out more one side

Hey guys, curious if you’ve seen something similar on your ride. So since day one, one of my front tires seems to stick out a bit more; it’s not bad but noticeable to me. I’ve had quite a few alignments done since I bought it new in 2018 (SS/1LE). It drives spot on currently. Is it just panel fitment or? Not a huge deal just curious

Haha, I thought it was just my car or the wheels or the body shop that rebuilt my car after I screwed up and crumpled the front end... yes, there is a small, but noticeable difference in front tire "poke" between the driver and the passenger side.

Cool! Well I haven’t crumpled mine yet lol, but glad it’s not just me. Mine pokes out more on the driver side. It’s really not a big deal but if ya look you can see it for sure!

I've actually found some older pics that illustrate mine, is yours similar?

Think mine pokes more, you win lol!! I attached the alignment from Chevy from last week. Guess maybe it could be the .2 camber diff maybe?

Mine does the same. Camber at -2.5 per side. Right side in 1/8” more then left. Right side higher by 1/4” also

Makes me wonder if it’s just how the car “sits” on the chassis; so regardless of how spot on the alignment is, it’s off visually … gotta love American engineering lol!! I know no 2 panels match, but it’s not a GM bash, all 4 mustangs I owned prior were similar. Thanks for replying btw!! 👍
