wth.. i am rubbing... on stock wheels

i noticed this 2 - 3 days ago but ignored it the first time it happened as would be my worst nightmare and was hoping it was just a freak incident and that it would go away. But no, it's still there and this time for good.. Everytime I go over speedbumps or dips.. my car would rub in the front left wheel on stock wheels.. i haven't had a chance to put my 19s back on 'cause the wheels aren't back yet but why would it rub on stock wheels.


Now i am thinking would it be the offset on the stock wheels + brabus suspension is causing it to rub?

or did the body shop mess something up? My car was in the body shop whole of last week 'cause of my incident at the dealer while it was getting some work done.. They had to repaint the front bumper and replace the headlight.

I dealt enuff of this rubbing bull**** with the C32 and now this car...

Is it possible for you to take a pic of the area where you THINK its rubbing? Inside? Outside?

rubbing is more then likely on the inside, as i slid my hands across and i didn't feel like it was touching anything.. anyways, i will try and take some pics tomorrow and see what's the problem.. hopefully it's something alignment can take care of.
