so I don’t think it’s the size of the wheels and tyres as it only happens on the one side “drivers side”
Every time I either reverse out of driver way right hand wheel down or over any decent medium size bumps the wheel hits the wheel arch and makes a scraping sound also has damaged the side wall of the tyre. It’s dangerously deep at the moment
I need to fix it as this tyre is shagged and before I replace it I want to fix the problem thanks in advance much appreciated

Measure the distance on both side of the car from wheel to arch, it should be the same give or take a mill or 2 for wear
