I have a problem with my rear beam i think.

firstly' when driving the rear wheel has pushed forward and somehow touched the front end of the rear arch(where the side skirt wraps around the rear inside arch) this has taken the paint of the side skirt that wraps inside the rear arch!

Anyhow. on a nova beam the actual beam moves in a arc shape.
so could this be due to bushes?

Wheel alignment seems fine(as in not sticking out from car ect
only problem u can tell is when cars lowerd onto the ground the gap between the tyre and the front of the arch is different
theres alot more space on the passenger side than the drivers.
i can get me hand between tyre and arch on passenger
drivers side i can just get me hand in at a squeeze!

any ideas would be great. im sure the rear beam is fine. just hoping this is a bush problem at the most

its gotta be sorted or its gonna either knacker up body work or knacker up me tyre.!!!!!! it catches on most heavy bumps now hence the car is parked up now and not being used..

help please
cheers

sounds very strange that does, cuz im sure they can only move up or down, not forward/backwards?

if u look at ur back wheels from the back, do they look in line? when i fucked my wheel stub on my last car u could see it was slightly out, but still cleared the arch by a mile
