Tire rubbing inside of frame
I took off my rear wheel last night and realized my tire has been rubbing my frame on the inside of the left seat stay, right under the rear brake caliper. My wheel looks to be sitting in there straight and was recently trued.
First of all I can't figure out why it's happening and second of all is there anything I can put on the frame to protect it?

So you can see marks on the frame but as the wheel sits now the tire isn't touching or close to touching? How bad are the marks, does it seem like its been going for a long time or could it have been the wheel being crooked in the dropouts for one ride?
