   Hey guys!
   Got some alloys put on my Saxo Forte and whenever I have 4 people in the car the wheel arch is touching the wheel so scrapes whilst I'm driving. Is there anything I can do to stop this? Or should I get some new alloys?
   
   Thanks!

   thers a lip under the back arch that you will be able to feel,
   
   all you need to do is take the wheels off and bend/grind the lip up out of the way.
   
   i had my old 1.1 flatarch lowered 60mm with 195 r45 15'' wheels and it scraped like mad untill i got rid of the lip.
