Angry Fender & Tyre Damage

Hi All,

I've just returned from a 'spirited' drive and found the lip of my drivers side fender bent slightly and a gash in my new tyre!

I'm wondering if my shocks are bad and allowed the tyre to come into contact with the lip?, my ride height is set to 25 inches at the front and I have an inch between the tyre and the lip. When I push down on the fender it only moves abount half an inch and pop's straight back up with no bouncing.

As far as I can tell from the service documents It had new inserts about 7 years ago and the car has only covered about 20K since then.

Any ideas?

Cheers

Tim.
