Hi Guys.. Ok i know this is not a toyota, but you have always come up with an answer for me regarding my Rolla, lets test your knowledge of Magnas 
A friend has TF Magna Sedan, lowered 2 inches,had a nasty run in with a kerb (All 4 wheels ) @60KPH,, no obvious damage, but since that day, when turning left and giving it a bit of stick it makes a weird kind of grinding sound (as if the tyre was rubbing the chassis, or alike (which it isnt) from the back RHS wheel
Now, the only thought I can come up with is the shock is FUBAR, and the tyres is "Skipping" on the road when its under heavy load..
Need your help 
Thanks

Well if it's hit a kerb something is obviously bent. Get under there and have a look!

Go and get a 23 point pedders safety check. Except get it from someplace more reputable than pedders!

I would think that the wheel is out of alignment or something in there has bent and rubbing against the wheel. Try get him to roll the car slowly and have a peek to see if its identifiable
