the shape of your tyres affect scrubbage too
some tyres r more squarer others r rounder which can tuck under the arches better (width side)

remove the rear archs and then stick em on with adheasive, that will solve the rubbing if you have any.

i have 100+ 17's 7inch wide they used to rub when i have ppl in back,when i went over bumps or they'd rub at full lock when wheels were angled to the left but never to the right, just gave the arch a bit of a rub down. no bother now

My corsa hasn't had archwork and only rubs with four people in the car or when driving at angles ie) up slopes etc.

I'm getting some 17inch 100+ phantoms delivered next week. they are et45 and only 7 inch wide. The car is dropped 40mm and are wrappedin toyo proxes t1-s. What are the chances of scrubbing/work needed?, and if so what? Please help. i have visions of an angle grinder and a big hammer!?!?!?
