guess u talkin about your 15's?
u know wat offset they are? should be stamped inside the wheel 'ET' then a number....

a good way to find out about rubbing is to reverse slowly on full lock, if u can hear / feel a rubbing or a knocking, then its prob cause the wheels are fouling something inside the arches. especially if the car isnt very low.

also, take a wheel off, and have a look at the inside tyre wall, inside of the wheel.... u might be able to see scuff marks or such like if they are catching.  

then maybe try a 3mm spacer and see if that cures the problem, u shouldnt need them on the back....  :nerd: :nerd:

got any pics of it?

if its only rubbing under load then its prob catching on the outside of the arch due to the ride height being lowered when the suspension is under load.

getting the lip on the arches rolled would prob cure it.... £25 a corner from any decent body shop should sort that
