James You should get a wheel alignment. My guess is that your castor is all wrong and unfortunately unless u get adjustable castor rods (highly recommended) theres not a lot u can do if it still rubs after the alignment. These adjustable rods pull the whole strut assembly forward. Mine are adjusted so far forward that I had to trim off the edge of the mudguard just behind the bumper bar but that is a bit extreme. Alternatively I would also check the rubber bushes in the castor rods to make sure they are not chopped out and letting the strut/wheel move back.
