I didn't have the alignment done, the PO did - but I looked at the sheet and it's all good. I took a good look at the car underneath and everything is straight and it's got a clean Carfax (which really doesn't mean much). Reading these forums it just seems common for one wheel to stick out more than the other, but those ~11mm really bug me.

But the kicker for you is that its common on older S13 chassis but not on S14s. Most of the time, when its shifted that far out, something is messed up. It could be mismatched lower control arms (one is a shorter S13 replacement), subframe is shifted or the frame is bent.

I actually have the same problem with my rear. The driver side sticks out about ~10mm more than the passenger. I have adjustable RLCA, Toe rods, and Traction rods, and my frame is also straight. But.. flip could be right about a shifted subframe or bent frame but I can't seem to find the reason why there's this difference on my s13. It also bugs me
