So this evening I jacked up the car and spun the wheels and there's no odd noises to be heard except for the following noise which I was told is normal from the brake pads:


I've also took some pics of the gap between the rim and the suspension arm again just to see if there's any contact and there wasn't, but they're really close.






And also, I unscrewed a few bolts from all four wheels and there are no signs of grinding on the tips whatsoever :|

Surely it has to be something, I've used the same bolts with the 207m wheels and when driven with them on, there is no such noise. I've also compared how far the bolts sick out when threaded through both sets of wheels and the length is exactly the same on both sets.
