thanks for replying guys

eLtrix - yeah i think it might be the large wheels, the car sits pretty high so i dont think its lowered. His wheels are 17inch(?) if i had to make a guess, dunno how wide they are or offset. Tyres i'll have to check. Haven't taken note if the guards were rolled. i'll check up on that.

CivicEGSI - i'll try to get pictures, probably post in about a weeks time.

just a note; the car only scrapes on that ONE corner. its the driver's rear passenger. even if we sit with the heavier guys on the other side, its only that one wheel that scrapes.
