If you're suggesting that stock wheels don't stick out far enough to rub on the arches, surely at a certain height the front will rub when I turn full lock etc!?!?

Rubbing is not the problem, bottoming out is, especially on English country roads.

You slammed the car with no fender roll and had no rub?
