Are you running very low? Appears to be a lot of camber on the rear. You might get away with it in terms of wheel sticking out as the top edge is under the arch, but due to the camber a lot is sticking out at the bottom.

Of more concern is the apparent stretch to the tyre - post your wheel and tyre sizes and I can defo confirm if they are legal or too stretched. There is definitely guidance for that!

If you're running spacers I'd be tempted to go in 5mm all round just to prevent aggro.
Will check wheels and tyres sizes tomorrow. Previous owner fit lowering springs (forget to ask, how many mm). And he put 10mm spacers on a front to clear brake calipers, didn't check rear yet.
