Right front wheel protrudes further than left?

Tire to fender height is within 0.1” side to side

What happens when you swap front tires and wheels, side to side?

Brother...we've been through this. This is the 4th set of wheels/tires that's been on this thing. They all do the same thing.

It's been a week. I am old. Rehashing info.

I will ask again, do the studs stick out the same amount from the rotor? If not, did they actually mount the body square to the frame? You should be able to measure that.....

I'd go look at mine cuz I don't think I've ever looked at it like that. But, I really DGAF cuz there's nothing reasonably feasible to be worth dealing with. I'd probably just hit the track and make a lot of hard lefts to try to shift the body over. If it doesn't work, it's still fun trying.

Sure thing Dale.

Huh? The studs sticking out from the rotor would only affect thread protrusion from the mounting surface (the hub face of the rotor). This wouldn't affect the wheel's protrusion.

Now, the entire hub/axle being shifted too far to the right? That's a thought.

Maybe the hub was replaced on that side with an aftermarket one. Maybe they used a cheap one and the flange is thicker to account for the Chinese pot metal it's made of.

*sigh*

I'm gonna go look at mine...

If the rotor was machined wrong (i.e. too thick where the hub is), the studs would not stick out as far. If the rotor was too thick there, the wheel would stick out further.
