Anyone can help me out why this is? Just installed some new tires on the front 275/40/18 on my 94, lowered on some sportlines. Driver side doesnt rub and sits a little higher than passenger. Any help is appreciated, thanks.

I believe so, i will be checking this weekend. What else can it be? The struts? Ive driven on these sportlines for months with no rubbing or tire hitting the fender.

might be the "foxbody lean" that plagues these model year mustangs...but i thought it was only the rear. how about isolators? does one side have them and the other doesnt?

I am not running isolators on both front and rear. Will it be easier to just run a smaller tire such as a 245-265 to prevent it?

yea i dont know what it could be then, you bought the springs brand new or used? if used, maybe one is a different model, but same brand or vice versa...

sounds wierd though...
