Hi guys and thanks for the advice on spacers and the tip on the Heat Gun. Suffice to say, there will not be any spacers going on my wheels and I always love to the opportunity to use a heat gun!

I'll check with Hemi57's SRT to see if we're getting exactly the same scraping but I'm sure that there is nothing really worrying happening and just a bit of plastic getting a bit of a shine in reverse!

I've been OS for nearly a week so I'm about to go for a spin and rub the flat spots out of the tyres!

Soooooooo nice to be home!

Sean.

I have had some scraping when reversing with hardlock. After pulling the wheels off we found the wheel was rubbing on the control arm??? not sure that is the correct name, the bar that runs down from the bolt in the front wheel arches. There were no marks on the wheels but a nice shiny spot on the bar. The fix is to take a couple of mm's off with an angle grinder.

I believe it is called the knuckle. Some pics on this thread:
