There are 3 possibilities
1- your frame is bent/bearing holders not aligned 2- your wheel is dished to one side 3- your bearings are sliding on the spindle What to check: Measure how far over the rim is from both sides Remove the wheel and re-install it backwards If the wheel is still off to the same side the problem is with your frame If the wheel is off to the opposite side then the problem is with your wheel. If there are no spacers between the cranks and the bearings then it is possible the bearing is moving, but this is somewhat less likely.
