I know this may sound stupid... But did she get out and check to see if the tire is flat? It may seem like common sense to us, but i've learned women dont "think" as much as we do apparently

But the only think i can think of that she could have bent is the metal bracing connecting the bottom of the front fender and the body. Other than that... what he Gatchmo said. Cant really think of much that would rub in the back.

Check to see if one of the lug nuts got knocked loose?

I would check for a flat, loose lug nuts, maybe a sway bar or leaf pack. Also check for any hoses dragging on the bottom, my Wrangler has that happen all the time.

Lol after having the three women in my family ALL drive home with a flat tire within a month when they all "heard something and felt it drive funny, but figured it was nothing" I've lost all hope for the females I know. And it was a joke, no reason to get all heated and such
Ask her if its more of a "sliding" noise or a "scraping" noise. And is it rubbing Full time? or intermediately?
