When I got my R100 MOTd recently one of the fails was for the tyres fouling the body on full lock. I'm using wide steels with 185/60/13's and 5mm spacers to clear the gti calipers.

Could be the inner arch liners not attached properly. Or the steering rack/tracking as been adjusted without centralizing the rack first, meaning
one side will turn in more then the other on full lock

Has anyone else had issues with this set up?
Has it passed an MOT previously like this? and did the tyres foul before the test? if not I wonder whether the suspension needs pumping up a bit? Just a thought as my rear tyres fouled before pumping up my suspension.
