Default Mk4 Fiesta/Puma 1.7

Hi


I've got a '98 Fiesta that I've upgraded with a Puma 1.7 lump. I've put the Puma 'Propeller' wheels on the Fiesta with the correct tyre size (190/55/15) and when I'm carrying rear seat passengers the tyres sometimes rub the arches over bumps. The old tyres were the same radius but didn't do this as they were narrower.


What's the best way to fix this? I can't lower the car as it is because I expect this problem will just get worse if I do. Ultimately I guess I'd be looking at rolling the arches but could I avoid that by using wheels with a different offset or some aftermarket springs?


Thanks
