Rubbing Front Nearside Tyre

Hi Folk, used this site before but not for a while now. No idea what my old log in details were, sorry. Any advice on the following would be greatly recieved.

When reversing on full lock (right hand down) something if fouling the front near side tyre. Not smooth rubbing like a tyre against a mudflap or something, but more like something poking into the tyre side wall. Do you think this could be the swing arm or track rod or whatever? I think whatever ball joint/rod bits and pieces that get near the tyre on full lock anyway, have got too near!

So have you made any changes recently, rotated wheels, new tyres, rims, etc. Hit anything, etc.??

It should be easy enough to identify just by putting it on full lock and seeing what is close. You can also pull the wheel off and see if the tyre or rim is marked. If not then start looking ar the disc and it's dirt guard, worn out pads and so on.

Never looked for it, but there should also be a steering turn limiter, so a checkthe on on the opposite side to see if it is allowing too much lock

That's me out of ideas
