they're scrubbing? without being lowered? easy way to solve that mate, sell the alloys and buy vauxhall ones. orr get inside the arch with a hammer and give it a good thrash to make some space.

yep like harv said, get rid of the alloys. you need alloys with an offset 45-49et. dont worry your not the first one to have this problem, the first thing people do when they get there car is rush out and get some alloys thinking the only thing they need worry about is the rim size.

Another thing you can do is take the wheels to a local engineers and get them to shave some of the wheel off on the back near the holes for the wheels nuts to bring the wheels further back into the arches.
