What can I adjust in my suspension setup to stop my tire from rubbing the inside of my wheel well. The outer part of my tires rub this part of the well on both sides. It's eating up my tires. Any help? pics of what to adjust would help. I'm a suspension newbie lol.

First of all, you need to hammer that ridge flat.Also if you haven't, hammer the inner lip flat too.

Then see if you still rub.

I beat the heck out of the liner thing and it helped a little maybe I need to grind it down a bit. Is it my caster that can be adjusted to fix it tho? Maybe an alignment. The car does pull a little to the right lol
