Angry FX springerfront wheel spacing

I just bought my 3rd harley, first softail and its a 2006 Springer, I recently noticed that the front rim is 2.5 inches from tire to fork on the left side and only 2" on the right side,(rotor side), what the hell is up with that?? I dont like it and now want to change my front end!!

I didn't notice it when I bought my springer either. It bothered me a little at first but I got over it. After I was over the front end I noticed the rear tire is offset towards the belt side. Actually the gouges in the tire from the fender strut bolts helped me notice the offset.
