Hey guys,

I have searched but couldn't find any similar problems. I recently bought new tires (285/40/18) and now only the pass side rear wheel is rubbing. It is sticking out about half a inch more than the driver side for some reason. I have took it to multiple shops and they all think pass side is sticking out more but none of them found any problem with the suspension or bushings. I know for sure it is not my wheels size or offset. Also one of the shop that works on lots of 350z told me it is pretty common on our cars?

Does anyone have the same problem? I have to run a degree more negative camber on pass side to make it not rub as much. I know if I changed my tires to 35 profile it would probably fix the problem but it just really annoys me knowing one wheel is sticking out more.

I have scheduled an appointment to check my frames but the shop told me it is unlikely the frame is damaged just by looking at the car. I bought my car used and it has a clean title and I have not been in any major accidents.

Here's my set up:
Enkei RPF1 18X10.5 285/40/18
SPC camber kit
Stance Coilover

Any help is appreciated!!

 

Negative camber or not, a half inch more track on the PS rear is not normal. You're right to take it in for an inspection. Despite what you were told, this is NOT normal for the Z33. Be sure to post what the results (and hopefully the fix) turned out to be.

 

^^^^ Exactly

Start by looking at the diff itself, looking at the stub shafts, and work your way out comparing side to side

 

Sounds like a crashed car

 

i would check the subframe bushings. sounds like the subframe shifted to the side, blown ball joints, toe + camber rods could be partial culprits as well.

 

Thanks guys, I will get my frame checked and change out my oem bushing with sikky solid bushings. I will update this thread asap.
