your arch has probably been pushed in a little, one of mine was, either this or the car has had a serious crash and been repaired. check the offset of the wheels.

Im sorry if I dont understand you primative language corsa BOI!!!

Obviously you are not the brightest star in the sky as not being able to spell BOY ranks among the biggest backward minded mistakes a person can make.

Now take your silly post and trim it :lol:

No "owt" as you say it means anything.

Mate, don't even think of doing it, its not only stupid it could be extremely dangerous. You don't have anywhere near enough metal on the face of the drum to start turning it down, especially not enough to bring your wheel in an inch.
I assume that both rear wheels have the same offset and that you don't have odd wheels or different width tyres.
It might be an idea to swap your rears over and see if you still have the problem, at least then you'll know the wheels are the same.
If all else fails, you might get away with skimming a touch off the inner face of the wheel, this has been done before, but to be honest, I wouldn't want it on my car.
