tire rubs rear wheel well 200

My passanger side rear tire has been rubbing the inside part of the wheel well for sometime. I have 195 70R 14 on the car. I'm getting ready to replace torque rod bushings that show excessive movement and cracking. Would that be at all related to a wheel rubbing? I don't think it is but I'm lost on what I personally could do to figure it out. Otherwise I guess its taking it to a shop. The other thing is that one of my front wheels is a little different from the other. Meaning a perfect allignment is impossible. The camber I believe is what the name is for the angle of the wheel unit. I suspect a slightly bent control arm. Anyways anyone ever deal with such a problem?

My only thought was to get 185's on the car and see if that helps. Its just a slight amount rubbing and it looks like on the tire it self the rubbing stops for about 4 inches or so. Meaning I have a wobbley tire? Thanks
