My wheels are really rubbing on the arch, especially if I go around corners at speed, would it be a good idea to add spacers??

What size tyres are you running and are you lowered? (If so, how much?)

Darn it @Donald!!! I told you to keep mum about those bodies man!!!

@NafemanNathan, it has been lowered, I cant tell you how much unfortunately and I have 18s on there.

Any idea what profile size and width they are?

Sounds like it's going to be a combination of everything unfortunately. I assume they're rubbing on the outer arch?

What was matey's name that had 18s and was lowered? I'm sure he solved his issue with some rubber band type tyres?

215 something something...

215 45 93 I think.... or is it 225???? I will go look.

Its rubbing mostly at the rear, never at the front and I think it is mostly inner, from what I saw when I took he wheels off the other day.

TBH, for what you would spend sorting it out, I'd put it towards a decent set of used 17's, they work much better on ludes IMHO. :)
