Default rattling sound?

Im getting a strange rattling sound from the right rear of my car, i can only really hear it at lower speeds, any idea what it could be? mabye my DDs hitting my exhaust? i just lowered my car with the pro kit, could there be rubbing. i felt around all the clearances on the tire and it felt fine

I don'th think it is your rims. I have the same rims and they do not rub. I had a rattle in my car also. I pulled the rear interior trim panels out, and put some sound mats in them. That seemed to cure my rattle. If it is actually under the car, I am not sure what it could be.

its actually sounds more like something is loose rolling around in my trunk, only at low speeds. could this just be the springs settling?
