    I have a question, after I install a set of after market tires and wheels, passanger side stick out more than the driver side, it is like about 1/4" more.
    anyone know what happen, or how can I fix it?

    I really don't know how to explain it.

    happened to another member, come to find out he got 2 different but the same wheels. one was the correct backspacing and the other one has less backspacing so they stuck out differently. maybe look into the wheel specs to make sure they are the same specs

    Is it just the front?... or front and rear?... According to a thread, somewhere on here, it's normal for the pass. side to stick out a little more.

    Tacomaster: it is front and rear that stick out more.
    08pretaco: I do believe the wheels all are the same, but how can I check it, please let me know.

    I tried searching for the thread that says it's "normal", but can't find it. Mine does it too.

    Measure where the spokes fall on both runs from the outside of the wheel
