Rear Passenger Wheel
« on: October 08, 2012, 02:53:00 PM »
I have a 92 Capri non turbo and my passenger rear wheel is hitting the bar that goes from the body to the bottom of my strut assembly and its tearing up the inside of my tire and my rim but its stock size and everything, the other side does not do this and its thesame rim and tire combo. P.S. already have spacers in place on both rear wheels.

Can i remove the bar and push it towards the inside of the car more and just weld it in place? i have new Konig Lace rims on the way to replace these current ones that I have.

It sounds like your trailing arm is bent or seriously damaged in some way - you'll need to figure out what's wrong with it.

Either the trailing arm is severely bent or your wheel is WAY out of alignment....
