tire rub on pass side

hey guys i have a evo9 and recently put a set of 17x9 rota p45s with 255 40 17 rs3s and the passenger side front tire is rubbing against the back of the fender well. i measured it and its about a 1/4 inch closer than the drivers side. my question is there any type of adjustment that i can get out of the front end. i have looked the front end over really good and i cant see any bends or evidence of a wreck. anybody have any ideals. thanks

Start with a vehicle alignment and see what that shows.

Measure distance of control arms to certain points. It is very easy to bend a control arm if you hit the right hole a certain way.
