hi i have recently changed my alloys on my corsa b sport from 15" to 16" and ive noticed its now scrubbing when turning on the plastic outer arch on front drivers side? its not happening on the passengers side but you can see the wheel is more "centered" in the arch almost as if the drivers side wheel has been pushed back more towards the rear of the car? is it possible to have the strut or what ever it is called the wheel is attached to adjusted or not?

if not i guess i will have to buy lower profile tyres? the ones i have are 50 profile and the car is lowered 40mm

you sure yourself or the previous owner hasnt chinned a kirb. i did it in my 1.4 and it cost me £150 to get the car jigged str8 coz it had twisted the chassis slightly then my mate tracked it up for me and it was fine after that and that had 17s on it lowered 40mm mate... take it to a body shop and ask them to have a look...
