a pic of plates off centered
Heres a picture of plates that are not even. I took the photo of them evenly so you could see how they are off by over a mm between them. I marked the center of one. It seems like one is right and the other is wrong? When I skate, one goes out, the other straight lol. Seems like the left one should be moved over 2 mm like the right one is that correct? I dont like these skates much.

 Heres my current skate. This is the one I want to put a long plate on. Both wheels in the front stick way out on the inside of the toe when I look straight down. It should show both sides evenly correct? I was going to follow this but not if its off. I think all my skates are off except my art skates. They are even at least. If so, I think I will be able to do sidestance MUCH easier now! I might have to put plates on all my skates from now on if they are put on off most the time.

 Do you feel the difference? If the heel is a bit off the same direction, maybe it's hard to feel it. If you feel it, don't like it and they are still under warranty, maybe ask your reseller about it. Without the manufacturer warranty, it's quite easy to modify, now you know the theory ;-))

 Seems you have a classical centering on these. Please see some corrections on this post for the front centering:

YES! I'm psyched I know how to do this. But I might sell those skates. Its not super noticeable sk8n. But I could tell and now I know why. I dont like hockey those boots anyway. No matter what I do, they still dont fit right and I cant move right in them.

Yeah, I will center it so the wheels show the same both sides there! Just doing this, would the skates veer outside like RS Dave mentioned since it would go between the 2nd and 3rd toes? Would this be a problem in frontstance? Just need to decide if I want a plate that will extend 1/8th inch on both ends of the boot to get my desired length since my feet arent big.
