only time my tyres did that, was on my mk1 and that was on the rears when it had been lowered, i found that even with the camber conversion that it would still feck the side walls up, i found that changing fron 40's to 45's sorted the problem,i think they look better, 40's don't fill the arch enough on 17's. youcan get 225/45/17's on the front ,but i hsd to grind a little window in the spring cup so that it din't rub.

Never happened to me before, but I have had a steel wheel shear off completely, the centre of it is now mounted and is a trophey for my motorclub, the 'Wheel of misfortune'
