Has anyone experienced the sidewalls of the tyres chaffing off the rim? Damage is apparent on all tyres and on both sides next to the rim, tyre pressures are correct and never low. They are road wheels/tyres bontys fitted to a trek. Any ideas?

Lots of salt and grit this winter? Pressure too low?
Is it just above the bead? Some ultralight tyres omit the chafing strip around the bead. The chafing strip does what is says on the packet.
It's normally more commonly seen on tandems, where some thin-walled brands were notorious for cutting through on the side.
