i just bought these wheels used but they are +51 all the way around and after looking at both sides i noticed that one side sticks out further than the other. i dont know if maybe one wheels is a diffrent offset or maybe i have an alignment problem or somthing worse.
i dont have good pics of the stock wheels to see if it was there with the stock wheels but,

this is the wheel that sticks out further






and this is the other side






do you think that maybe its the camber or what

edit:

i found one photo thats of the side that doesnt stick out with the stock wheels
i dont know if it helps

Im no expert but that doesnt look right to me..I would get the wheels off and get them measured and also a full alignment check done immediately.

You could be damaging the diff if you are running wheels/tyres of different sizes on the rear axle and thats the last thing you want.

Im sure someone in the know will be along to diagnose that very shortly for you..

most wheels have the size and offset marked inside the wheel. somewhere on the back of the spokes, hub, somewhere.

jack up the car, pull the wheels off and see what is written inside. make sure both wheels have the same specs.

do you know if the car has been wrecked? if so, was it the rear end or side of the car?

HondaS

its a clean title so if it was wrecked they fixed it withought anyone knowing and all my vin numbers match along with door jam gaps being spot on. ill pull them off today i guess

Easy to tell if the wheels are different specs. Just switch sides... put your driver side wheels onto your passenger side wheels.. vice versa. See if it sticks out still... if it does then its not your wheels but probably your alignment or somthing else.

One of the fronts on rear and one of the rears on the front?

if all of the wheels are same size and all the offsets check out, you might want to take a look at your suspension itself. i had a similar problem with the fronts on my car and after bringing it to an alignment place they had told me that one of my control arms were bent out of place and that i may need to replace them. well, one fat headache and $400 later, they are back to center and both sides are evenly proportioned.

aww man i just had my car in the air i looked and they both said 51 so i know they are the same offset but one said 18x8.5 + 51 and the other said 18x8 1/2 + 51 so maybe thats the problem and also i can get 2 fingers in the gap on the passanger side and about 2 and a half fingers on the driverside (the wheel gap)

isn't 8.5 and 8 1/2 the same thing?

stupid question..but did you check tire pressure?

HondaS

ya i keep mine at 29psi

and also 8.5 and 8 and 1/2 is the same size but why is one written diffrent
