Yes. Put the wheel in backwards and see if it rubs the other side. Standard wheels should be symmetrical relative to the dropouts.
(If it rubs the same side of the frame, the frame isn’t straight)

Yes! Crudely checked the wheel and is out by a few mm. Now I'm going to attempt to fix the issue. Wish me luck.

I got a flat in the rear tire on my turbo bike, and noticed that the bearing are sounding really rough, so I switched to another wheel. I’m using an Elite training tire, but somehow I’ve got serious tire rub with a different wheel. I just can’t get the wheel to go into the frame straight without rubbing on the non drive side. The wheels are both the same size, the same tire, with the same pressure. Is there something I’m completely missing?
