Angry rubbing wheel

I just noticed a couple of times when i take really fast turns my wheel seems to rub. I have everything stock haven't lowered it or anything like that.
Does anybody else had the same problem?

Your aftermarket wheels are the wrong offset probably...do a search for "offset" and you should come up with some good info.

He said everything was stock right? Unless he told you something he didn't post here than that would mean he has stock wheels.

then I can only see or think of ONE reason that you could have gotten enough body roll to make something rub...and that is if one of your strutts is bad.....

and seeing as how you said you were cornering...I am sure you were not at the wheel locks of the steering...so that wouldn't be it either.

take your car to the dealer and have your struts checked out.

maybee it's just the sound of the tires rubbing on the ground, at the edge of losing traction??
