I just got new balljoints, new tie rods, new front tires, and an alignment. The tires are 225/55/16 (stock size) Hankook K106s on Ponys. When i turn the wheel all the way to the left, the left (driver's side) tire rubs on the inner fender. There is no rubbing on the right tire, when I turn the wheel all the way to the right. There was no rubbing before I got all this work done. Is this due to a bad alignment???? Thanks for the help in advance.

My car rubs on that side also... I run the stock tire size on turbines. It must be from build tolerances between all of the parts.

srothfuss, that's good to hear, because now I know that something isn't messed up.

Hey HoodStrype, I don't think I need to take such drastic measures just yet haha.

Thanks.
