Rubbing noise?
 
Hi,
Since changing my wheels to 17" with 45 series tyres, I get a deep rubbing type noise from the front area.
I know that the wheels are not rubbing against anything so am wondering wheather the bushes or bearing might cause this noise?
I have also tried the old wheels, but the noise remains.
I'm sure something has worn out do to the ride now being more harsher.
It comes at any speed over 10mph, and can hear it more on the motorway.

Any ideas pls?

How many miles on vehicle?
Is it a Vano? V220?

Who raised the car to put the new wheels on? was a jack placed at the wrong point and bent something?
