Hi, long time user recently subscribed.
One thing that has bugged me, is the fact the tire is not centered on the wheel. Is this correct? As when I enter the numbers into Solidworks the outer UCA intersects the tire. Also thinking it would make scrub radius incorrect?
Cheers, and keep up the great work.

Can you post the link to your model. Have you set the wheel offset to 0?

Its for an off road car. Hence the long uprights. Even though it clears here on the calculator, in real life the tire will be centered on the rim not to the outside? Am I seeing this right? Back space is 25mm.

Are you expecting the outer UCA joint to be higher than is displayed in the calc? Can you post a screen capture of what you see in solidworks as a comparison?
