i mean from the top of the tire up to the wheel arch is say 5cm on the right side but on the left side its 7cm, the car sort of wobbles as it drives

If you have coilovers it might be the way the wheels are cambered. If you are talking about how much each wheel sticks out it might be this. I have the same problem. Well I wouldnt call it a problem since it was set up that way and I have normal smooth driving. With mine the left wheel "sinks?" in more than the right one.

Im just running on standard suspension. this is what i mean, on the right side the difference is much shorter then it is on the left side
