   i got a 1.1 flatarch with 15/195/45 not lowerd but when i have depending on the person 1 or 2 people in the back they start to scrape on the arches, also on the inside of the right front arch its scraping on the rad pipe wearing through the string slowly. will spacers fix this ? if so what size
   
   Also last night i was doing about 85when i noticed a speed camera braking harshly an getting down to 40 intime but shortly after my steering wheel was wobling at 50 asif my wheel barings or balancing was out or somthing, also this morning i took the front wheels off to check my pads & i noticed the right side disc when i spin it in my hands it grips on the caliper every full turn asif its bent out of shape. I havent changed my pads recently but could it of been warped from the sharp breaking ?
   
   and finaly i hit a curb a few weeks back and theres a big smash out of my right side front rim, its right down to the beading, untill i can get some new rims is it better to have it on the back or front, what would be less pressure ?
   
   Thanks in advance

   warped discs from braking hard cause you were a knob speeding lol
   Wheel if you can see beading throw it in the bin and put your spare on especially if yoyr slamming on brakes at pace
   
   195/45/15 on a flat arch you need the rear arches rolling or cutting the front may be an offset issue so a small spacer sounds right but string holding the rad hose on??? There should be a plastic clip to hold it up

   when i said string i mean the string inside the rad pipe, its like strighnthens the rubber or somthing i supose to stop it stretching & fucknows ima just get vt front discs pads & calipers & take the lip off the arch then if that will sort it
