I searched for this all over but does anyone know how far back core centre is from true centre? I wanna get them centre mounted and draw a line so they dont get fucked up but true centre is not indicated on the sidewall
any help would be awesome

i did but it would be easier to double check if i knew how far back core was then i could just measure along the sidewall to be absolutely sure

Just find a flat surface, put one tip down and one tail down, hold them together. If they match up they're at dead center.

Honestly, you could be a little bit off and it probably won't be something you would ever notice. Measure twice, draw the lines, flip on ski around to check, and call it good.
