Hi PV
A pic of the wheel/tyre combination (with a good view of the hole in the middle) will help diagnose.

My first mini had a rear tyre rubbing on the right shocker problem, made a horrible noise around left corners, it turned out to be badly worn trailing arm bushes.

add to the list,

what flares?

what hubs? (my metro hubs crank the positive camber not helping rubbing issues - still have to fit the adjustable suspension to counter act it)
