my r/n/s arch is rubbing when i put my foot down & with weight. the other side as a bigger gap beetween the arch & tyre. could it be that i need to have my arch rolled.

I find the fact that one side has a bigger gap than the other is abit worrying tbh
What size wheels and tyres are you using?

Are your beam bushes recent?

Maybe you should try 205/50s next time so the overall height will be closer to the orginal but I cant see how one side is rubbing and the other isn't with new shocks and springs

205/45/16 would be normal tyre size and as mentioned earlier beam bushes could cause one side to be lower than the other.

its 205/50/16, i have 16" hartges , the 50 profile has been discussed before.
i've got 205/55/16 on the rear as they were super cheep from a mate, they rub under hard boot while cornering, i've got my arches rolled. it don't do it with the 50's
