Help wanted, Front tires not centered

1973 Dart Sport 340 215/60/15

Again, anything with a Dart front fender isn’t useful as a reference because the openings are no where near symmetric. On a Dart fender there should be significantly more space to the rear of the tire because the wheel opening is MUCH longer.

That’s even more true on a ‘72+ Dart, because the wheel openings were longer on the ‘72+ Dart fenders than on the ‘71 down fenders.

You can see that in these pictures, first one is my '74 Duster with its original fenders, second is after I put '71 Dart fenders on it as part of its Demon conversion. The suspension in both pictures is the same, so the wheel placement is the same. You can see the clearance to the front of the wheel opening is basically identical, and the rear clearance is dramatically larger on the Dart fenders. Again, the wheel didn't move. And the '71 Dart wheel openings are almost 2" shorter than the '72+ Dart fender wheel openings.
