[quote:fd9b85d1ce="Dave H"]have you got lowered suspension ?[/quote:fd9b85d1ce] hi, no the whole car is completely standard this is why i have no idea hwat it is as i have never come across this problem . any ideas?

are they rubbing constantly .. or when you have weight in the back ?

[quote:9bb2b95f91="Dave H"]are they rubbing constantly .. or when you have weight in the back ?[/quote:9bb2b95f91] they are rubbing constantly even when it's just me in the car. it is catching just on the inside corner of the wheel?

well .. if your not loaded up with boomboxes .. lol .. then either your suspension on both sides has gone faulty at the same time (unlikely) or the tyres must be wrong ? ..

I will look into the spacer's issue .. but if you have replaced, like for like tyres on standard issue rims and it needed spacers the spacers would already be fitted !!

Yes it is possible that the repair shop/garage removed the spacers and didn't replace them as they should ?? and this sounds more likely than both springs/shockers going faulty at the same time !!
