Lowered car but rubbing

[Sib]

The car has been lowered 25mm on PI springs allround

The rubbing occurs when the front wheels are turned and it seems they catch the plastic arch inside the wheel housing.

Any ideas and pictures of which bit needs modifying to stop this.

take the wheels off and jack up the car, you'll see what bit of plastics need to be modified/butchered.

will do mate, but I can see me having no arch left

It's probably the section that covers one of the nuts... It bulges out.

Sounds painful

I thought the idea of lower stiffer suspension was the ability to go round bends faster and safer, not to slow down to avoid rubbing.

ps, I've cut away some plastic where I could see it gleaming from the tyre rubbing against it. Its better but not perfect
