hi guys, just as the title says really, its the drivers side one, not sure what part it is, if its the cambers, suspension or what? but can any one shed some light on what i can do, to get it straight, coz its costing me a more money on petrol and tyres. the bottom of the wheel is sitting slightly in, so then the top of the wheel is sitting out, im guessing its about 1cm-2cm out, as it is really visible when looking at it. and got a MOT coming up! damn it!

Take it to a garage and get them to check it mate - you can't fix a problem if you don't know what the problem is

You'd see the wheel is bent as it won't spin true
Camber could be well off too. Take my advice and go to a garage for it to be inspected

the wheel spins with no problem, still drive it on a day to day basic, but tyres are getting worn quickly, getting annoying.
