So I just got this s2000 a couple weeks ago, got it painted gpw and I am fairly new to the s2000 aside from helping friends that have one as well. Been doing little stuff to it like maintenance and cleaning up what I can. I recently got these ap2v1 wheels and mounted them today and noticed the passenger rear wheel is closer to the rear bumper than the driver side rear wheel is. The car drives perfectly straight and feels good in turns, it has a clean car fax and no rear damage indicated, looked around under it and nothing seems bent or out of place. It is lowered on skunk2 lowering springs, what could be the cause of this? Does it need a alignment? The rear of course has no caster adjustment so I’ve been scratching my head at what could be wrong. Some pics for reference of what I am talking about.

Your subframe may be shifted, or you might have a bent part

How do the alignment results look?

 

If it had rear end accident then that is probably the cause. If the alignment specs are in the green and it drives great I would not worry about it too much.

 

That most likely is just the bumber cover not being straight. It is slightly further forward than the other side as it appears in the pics if you look how it lines up with the fender lip. That alone is not accounting for all of that gap difference but it could be angled slightly too which it appears to be. The gap under the tail light is larger towards the back on the side with less gap to the rear wheel, meaning the bumper cover is angled slighly down on that side too. If you really want to check reliably then measure from center of front/rear wheel on each side. If it aligns well I would not worry about it though
