Need help with striping issue i cant figure out

Hey guys I am having trouble figuring out a striping issue, I keep getting a very small strip of uncut grass that seems to run right down the middle of the right tire mark. I have taken blades off and sharpened and checked then for nics and there aren't any. I have even switched all the blades around and its still happening on the right side. Any thoughts or suggestions would be great. Thanks
I took pics bit couldn't upload from phone

I have a 48" Viking as well. The front tires are in the middle of the rear tire tracks. Maybe the front tire is pushing the grass down and the blades are not getting it standing again in time to cut it.

Has this always happened? What blades do you use?(low lift, mulching, high lift?)

I have never noticed this with mine, but usually run high lifts(didnt have it when mulching full time either though.)
