Question about tire rubbing

Hi guys,

I've been running 25mm spacers for almost a year now on stock height and 19 rays with stock rubber. However I changed tires to 245/35/19 front and 255/40/19 rear and the driver side was rubbing BAD! My question is how come only the driver side is rubbing? After looking at my car from the back (sounds dirty I know ) I notice that the driver side wheel/tire looks as if it sticks further out than the passenger. Is this normal?
Any help is much appreciated.

Alex

my driver's side rubbed when I put on 255/40 rears with 25mm spacers and z-htech drops, may just be because of the weight of the driver or something throwing off the weight. I rolled my rear fenders and no problems with it.

Alignment could be a bit off on the corner also.
