So yesterday I had gone ahead and moved my outter tie rod ends inward to correct a bit of + Toe. Part of my tire was wearing fast because it ran on the outer tread. Afterwards I took it for a test drive and there was a grinding noise that worsened on left turns. Upon further inspection I found that the top corner of the caliper began grinding on the wheel. Both bolts are still in and I read somewhere that it could have been a pothole that bent the wheel. I dont believe the wheel is bent (although PA potholes are the worst in the country and you could freely swim in a few of them...). Ive also read that there could be a loose clip? I think I adjusted to far and pushed the caliper out, but even at that point the caliper is mounted in one place at all times and the wheel is parallel on the hub and I cant imagine that gap closing from a tie rod. Any help is appreciated.
