Is it the same both sides mate?
Have a little look underneath and see if anything looks untoward.
Measure the gap both sides, if its not the same then there is an issue mate.
What car is it?

Maybe roll bar bushes are worn, causing the front end set up to sit slightly back.
Just a thought..

If you mix and match 2wd arms with a 4x4 antiroll bar, it shoves the wheels right forward.
Take a wheel off and see if the lower arm points forward or comes out at 90'.
