grinding from rear of car when turning and going over bumps
« on: March 19, 2006, 12:26:20 AM »

ok i have had this problem for over 6 months but now it is worse now that i am lowered.


It used to do it when i had like 3 or for people in the car(at stock height). Then i would go around turns or hit a small bump and i would hear a grinding noise.

Now it is doing it more now that i am lowered, and i don't need any one in the car for it to do it. But when there is some one else in the car it is even worse.


also i have 17x7 rims with 225/45 tires i have had them on the car for a year and couple of months now, but like i said the grinding did not happen till about 6 months ago. But now that i am lowered on eibach lowering springs and kyb/agx struts it does it alot more.

note also i have the base model so there is no rear sway bar, and at the moment the front is not hooked up. So i am not sure if that would cause that much body roll to have the wheels hit the fenders.


Now everyone is telling me it is most likely the tires rubbing against the fenders. Though i am not seeing any signs of cuts or anything on the tires.

any ideas

thanks,
kevin

 Check to see if the upper control arm is rubbing against the inner tire ...but that wouldn't be a "grinding"noise ...I'd guess rear wheel bearings are shot

thats what i thought it would be.


you wouldn't happen to know how much that goes for would you.
or
would a hub from a a/s with disk breaks work  if i have drums(got a set in the garage cause i was going to swap the drums for disk but changed my mine)
