The front of the rear wheel(at the rim) is running about 4mm towards the left chainstay. The caliper mounting hole is even offset from the wheels center.

Used two methods to measure:
The shop used a long Park guage(ran from the headtube, across the seat tube and measured the distance at the drops)
Then used a straight edge ruler across the BB-shell, overhung it over the rim(above the chainsay) then measured the distance from the rims edge to the straight edge ruler. There's about a 4mm difference between the two sides. It's very noticeable.

Is that considered acceptable by carbon's standards???
At $1600, frame alignment wasn't even a considering factor during purchase.
Is such common among Felt?
