New knocking aside, it appears that my new wheels (et35, 8" front and 9" rear) and my recent Apex spring spring drop (35mm), are making my rear wheels catch my arches.
So, rolling arches? Is this my only choice? And if so, what exactly am I looking at?

Re: Rolling arches
Is it the outside edge of the tyre catching the wheel arch or the inside edge of the tyre catching the inner arch liner?
Fitting slightly narrower tyres may help, getting the arches rolled would be a lot cheaper and is a straight forward process, done properly it should increase the clearance without effecting the paintwork.

Re: Rolling arches
Its definitely on the outside mate. I can see a slight scuffing on the tyre. More so on the drivers side though. Could there be some misalignment somewhere too?
Re: Rolling arches
Archenemy are great and it'll be done in an hour or so without any damage to paint work. Certainly sounds like the solution and they will also flare the arch slightly if needed.
