I noticed after fitting my new wheels, the rear right hand wheel seems to be nicely in line with the guard, whereas the rear left hand wheel sits in about another 7 or 8 mm. Both wheels are measured to the same spec offset-wise.
I noticed when putting on the centre caps, one side wouldn't go on, but the other went on fine. It's as if the threaded stub coming out the center of the hub is slightly longer. Anyone else seen this? My FG XR8 ute has the same problem, only it was about 13mm, so much worse. I appreciate any help. I'm thinking on just rectifying it with a 5mm spacer, but that's not the point. Cheers.

Car hasn't been lowered more than factory has it. I am not familiar with the underside of a Falcon but if you lower a Commodore you need to fit an adjustable panhard rod to bring the body back to centre with the diff.

Is it the same with the original wheels; to eliminate one variable in the equation?

It was explained to me at the tyre shop this was a fairly common problem, caused by the FG Diffs not being 100% centered in the vehicle.

The diff cradle isn't centered.
