+1 on the Rolling of the fenders!!!

You have to remember that Fords changed the front fenders on the 91-93 models with the 16" Pony Wheels!

Hey now let's not clutter up my thread...
I'll be pulling the wheels off today to check the offset/backspace and I'll report back.

Another picture of the tire. Forgot to look for rubber on the fender liner though.

I figure the worn side was to the outside of the car?

If so, looks like excessive toe-in or positive camber. Do you know if the bearings, bushings and such are all in good shape or as to another reason the tire may be worn in such a way?

Off-set is fine for an OEM Fox suspension with 9" wheels, so fender rolling should have no issue solving the rubbing on the outside.

Yea. Worn side was the outside. As soon as I get some steady cash flow again I plan on having all the steering components looked at and replaced if needed.
Also noticed that the (front) springs are red. Is that stock or aftermarket? I've never seen any stock springs any color other than black.
