Nightmare, 1st time ive had 3 people in the car and the rear wheels scrub like hell. 
I have 17" Fox evo 6 offset ET37. which stick out quiet a bit.
If i got a professional to do it, wot would they do? and how much is it?
Or can i do it my self? if so wot do i do?

Take off the rear arches. Remove the bolts that hold them to the car. Bond the arches back into place. Job done.
ps. et37

i have et37 wheels. they won't fit under the standard arch. i tried banging mine out with a hammer from the inside of the arch, but it didn't work. i have to shvae about 1 1/2" to sort it out.
BTW u can't shave that much because i have the psg2 wide arches on

i tested mine by taking the plastic arch off. the inside of the metal arch was catching and i couldn't get it not to touch.
mine was lowered -40mm so the wheel was right next to the arch, so u could clearly see it was hitting.
it only catches by a little bit but like i said i tried hammering the arch out but it didn't work so i just shaved it.

Take those silly wheels off and go and buy a set that fir your car. You will only destroy the handling ride and tyre wear with wrong offset wheels, pluss they will look daft as they will stick out or in too far!
