_Finally_ figured this out. Ill give it a while before I post an explanation to see if anyone else catches it. The answer has been in front of me the entire time.

Exactly. you prolly mixed them when you rotated them or put the wheels on or off the car, and two of the wheels are diff offsets then the other two :lol

Winnar. All four wheels are stamped with 41 which is the offset that I was told they all were.
Turns out this actually works to my advantage since the rear tires slightly rubbed on the outside (I fixed this by raising the car a bit) and the fronts rubbed at full lock on the frameā¦ well when I say the fronts and the rears I mean one front and one rear. Just by taking advantage of the offsets I was able to fix both issues.

I could be wrong but looks like youre tread pattern is going the wrong way as well as the offsets

Those pictures were just from test fitting so tread direction wasnāt important.
proof that they each say 41 (the only other offset that the 15"s are offered in is 31)

I know you already corrected the issue at hand but incase you didnāt know the offsets are measured from the center of the wheel to the flange surface, so an 41 offset on a 7" wide wheel will be the same as that of an 8" wide wheel, but the backspacing will be different š
thatās funny mike. Cool lop-sided stagger.
