Hhi guys ive had a quick search but cant find what im looking for, basically ive recently switched back to standard steelies (175,65 R14) from 16" nimrods and have had a rubbing/grinding noise from front of the car, any ideas what it may be?

my car is a 206 1.4 verve 2006 plate if it helps.

Also i had an advisory for passenger side wishbone... not sure if this would effect the wheels rubbing?

I take it you are using the correct steel wheel bolts for the steel wheels & NOT the alloy bolts from the Nimrod's?

Someone stacked wheel weights inside one of the wheels for some reason? they can catch the caliper.
