I have a set of 15inch alloys on at the minute, I can hear what I can only describe as a grinding (also like a ticking) when the wheels are turning at low speed, on full lock (or close to full)

Is this something to be concerned with, or is this a standard thing in having after-market wheels?! Cheers guys

Stick your head in the arch to see if there are any visable marks where the wheel is catching!

What sized tyres on the wheels??

Its cus your wheels are bigger than standard! They all do it a bit when your car is lowered. Dont worry about it, just try not to use full lock! Lol

thought that extra inch of wheel size might have made the difference! noticed that the inner arches have ground away where the tire would hit it, so there, i think, problem solved! &yeah, coonper, i'll stay off the full lock!!
