Am I Crazy? 2013 1LE
 
2 Attachment(s)
I know we are all very particular of our cars. Today I noticed the left rear seems to stick out towards the fender slightly more than the right. I jacked it up, checked to see if wheel could move side to side or up and down, wheels didn’t move and are solid. Checked the rear end and half shafts and all seems to be just fine. Is this just normal from the mfg or something else?

That looks like a substantial difference. What is the history of this car? Original owner? Original wheels? Collision repair?

I’m the 3rd owner, no accidents, had a clean title.

Think it could just be the camber needs adjusting?

I pulled it out and looked closer. I think it just may be the camber on the right rear. Thoughts?

Maybe it is set up to turn left ;)

If mine looked like that I think I would visit with someone like Accurate Alignment and get it checked out, it looks like that rear end is shifted over. https://accuratealignment.com/

are all 4 wheels OEM 1LE/ZL1? the clone wheels sit differently. Do all 4 of your rims have the CAMARO script stamped on them?

Yeah, that's not right. I'd get that looked at. Bring it to a good shop that can do an alignment - you shouldn't be able to SEE a difference in an alignment.

Are the wheels/tires the same size? Might be a trick of the light, but I swear the drivers side looks wider.

If those are stock 1le/zl1 wheels than they are the same width

Could it be in trailing arm issue? I once talked to a gentleman that work at a Van Nuys plant that build Chevelles.. he told me that they actually stuck out a little more on the left side then passenger side and I guess on the Corvette c4 forum it's been an ongoing question... also .. have you ever replaced your rear rotors? Other then anything from the stock ones?

I’ll be interested in the outcome...

I jacked it up and looked at the diff, the halfshafts, etc. and all looked good. I already made an apt at accurate alignment. I had a track day on the 30th so wonder if alignment moved during that.

Yes they are the OEM 1LE wheels. They all have the CAMARO stamped in them.

Yes, both rears are 305’s. Looking at 315’s when these wear out.

That’s interesting, haven’t heard of that. Car only has 26k miles, so I am assuming, yes they are the stock 1LE rotors.

The 1le comes with 285/35/20 on all 4 corners.
