i got my tires replaced balanced and stuff in walmart... now the car seems to be tilted to the left...
the tires are 205-60-15 kumho's ... WHAT TEH HELL IS WRONG with it? the rims on the drivers side say 16 LH and the ones on the passengers side are 17 RH... the passengers side looks up mostly the rear though... what do these numbers mean? should it be.. 16 lh's on front and 17 rh on the back? is it my suspension? i have an 88 gxl..

LH= Left side
RH= Right side

icemark... what do u mean... is the RH is that suppose to go on the driver's side... and the LH on the passengers side or viceversa?

Icemark

Here, in the states, RH means the passengers side of the car.

and LH means the drivers side of the car.

The S4 5 lug and Turbo wheels are directional and need to be mounted on the correct side.

ok so i guess whats making it tilt is my suspension? the struts or coilovers are bad?

Icemark

Or something bent or loose.

If you have coil overs, just adjust the coils down (or up depending on height you want). Coil overs are adjustable (unlike the stock struts and coils).

How long have you owned the car? Stock paint? Could it be a bent frame guys, or is that not a symptom of a bent frame?

Mr. Gadget

Paint?

Take the time to make sure the walmart boys put the same tire size in all 4 positions. Otherwise, look at the suspension, frame and stuff.

sorry guys i meant to say the spare tire... but the car seemed perfect before the tires... even though the dent on my fender was like a day before i got the tires changed so i didnt check if that messed the car's stance

Two of the most basic questions possible:

-Was is parked on a perfectly level surface?
-Are all four tires properly inflated?

Wankel7

Was it parked on top of a small furry animal?

What size are the tires. Not to be rude...but do you know how to read tire sizes?

yeah i drove around parked in like 10 driveways... they all read 205/60r15 the psi on each is 32psi... still its tilted....

Well, time to break out the yardstick.
Measure the height of the fender gap between the top of the tire and the fender well.
Compare all 4, see if one side is subtantially less.

Do the same thing measuring the height of the wheel, from the ground to the center of the hub, just to see if it is the tires.

How is it driving/tracking?? Alignment seem off?
Frame rails can be EASILY bent on some lifts if they just shove the arms under the car on a rail and lift.
Check underneath the car, and see if the rails are straight or if they are f&(ked up!
