    Rear subframe bushings

    Alright so I know my bushings are shot and I have new ones ready to go in but I thought I'd throw this question out there.
    Will old bushings cause the rear wheel to not be centered in the wheel arch?
    I have some 275/40r17s on the rear and they fill the wheel well nicely but aren't centered in the opening.
    Here's some pics to show clearance. That clearance is gone under hard accel.
    I have 750lb springs in the rear as well




    TIA

    Maybe, but it's most likely because of a trifecta of bad TABs, subframe bushings and the diff bushing.

      I think it would look centered if the side skirts weren't there.

        Ride height seems a bit high to me. The farther the trailing arm is from level, the farther forward the wheel moves from center as the arm swings forward.

          Hmmm
          I have since lowered it in the rear some more.
          You may be on to something with the side skirt.
          I was on the dyno and found under high speed that the tires contacted on the body.
