Well if no rubbing on the inner fender the only thing I can think of is you rubbed the tire up along side of someting. But did you not say the groove was growing, not just a one time thing?

You need to get the car to the dealer, and dare I say qik...

I don't care if it is an off-road truck experiencing maximum suspension travel or a performance car cornering hard.
with your vehicular experience, that was a ridiculously naive thing to say....

Jarek, I've noticed when I rub with my 18's it's usually on the platic part of the rear fender lining (behind the wheel) not the top rubber part. Feel along the whole wheel well/fender lining area not just the top...

correct.

on my old car, the rear bumper (@ wheel well opening) was worn out on the drivers side from my various spring experiements.

and i little bit on the passenger side...not much though.
