What age/model/wheel size?
Check the wheel isn't actually rubbing on the liner. Mine was recently, as a reult of tired springs and worn bump stops. As a CDX it has the bigger tyres and alloys so there isn't much clearance anyway.
Other thought is if the rubbing is more of a knock/rumble or clunking, and you have a CV joint on the way out

My apologies if I posted in the wrong group. The car is a Vauxhall cavalier, 1991, model is 1.8ls, wheel are r14
Cheers
No problem, you weren't far out, it's just that I assume there's a greater probability of a correct answer on the maintenance group.
