Default Knocking noise from rear.

Hi guys. Got a knocking noise coming from the rear of my 08 hatch under acceleration and reversing full lock sometimes. I've identified the noise to be coming from the rear passenger side. Also I have noticed that the wheel that side pokes out more than the drivers side does and occasionally catches the arch under cornering, whereas the other side tucks under the arch as it should. I've had camber arms fitted and maxxed out so I know its not the camber. And the tracking and toe has been adjusted correctly too. Any help or advice would be grateful.

Just check that the drive shaft bolts are tight at the diff mine had slacked off and giving a knock when taking up reverse.
