a wee problem?

[Doyle]

i have a rubbing noise coming from my front passenger side wheels apart from the obviouc rubbing at full lock as it is lowered 60mm and on 17" wheels. The noise gets louder as i go faster and also if i turn to the left, strangley though when i make a right turn the noise disappears completely.

I dont beleive it to be the bearing, buti have been wrong in the past.

If anyone else has had a simlar problem like this or can give me some suggestions then please do reply soon as.

Thanks

Paul

itll be the wheel rubbing on the inside of the arch probably. mine do this 16's standard height.

a work colleague has suggested it could be caused by the brake discs warped....any truth in this?

You sure it's not the wind/air blowing the arch liner closer to your wheel as you build up speed? That'll make a rubbing noise..
