do you mean where the metal lip comes down to the point where the outer and inner wings are spot welded together?? On the outside of the wheel yes?? | |

dont grind the metal then, take the plastic arch off, heat the panel and bend it out before replacing the arch. Will help, but you can only do it so much then you will have to go the wide arch route. | |

you think thats bad, go and find a t reg (just as an example) vw passat and measure the distance between the front and back wheels both sides, they are about an inch different. | |

nah mate i heard all corsa were like this its something about the rear axle. i was down 60 and the rear drivers side rubbed like fuck and the other side didn't. Someone on here a week ago said all corsa's were like this when they left the production line and it was normal and axle related | |

you had a shunt at the front, so unless it was very very hard it wudnt do anythin to the rear. | |

Novas used to have the same problem. Was told that they were made with a 5mm tolerance on the axle so it could be upto 5mm over to the drivers side. Mine is the smae mate. | |

Mt rear drivers side wheel defiantely definately sticks out more than the other side. Its making it rub against the inner wall of the metal arch which i'v no chance of being able to grind unless i want a hole in the side of the car and in my boot! |
