Take off your wheel and spray sum spray paint in your arch where you think its scrubbing then just bang away at that point with a hammer. good luck

thats weird problem you have mate...

cant understand why ur getting rubbing especially on a 45 offset..

Heres what to do to assure u get no rubbing...

take ur rear wheels off and ur rear plastic arches, grind all metal bolts off and grind as much plastic arch as you can... then just bond the arches back on... job done..
