Alright so today me and a friend lowered my car with Vogtland springs and used MM cc plates.
We got them on and I also installed my new Gorilla lug nuts since the wheels were off and wow...

My car makes not just noises but AWFUL noises. In the front, I'm running with stock isos just on the bottom and polyurethane isos in the rear, both the top and the bottom ones.

Now, my car makes noises.
It squeeks whenever it pleases.
Whenever I take a harder turn, I hear this NASTY knocking/thumping sound.

I feel as if my wheels are going to come off and the whole rear end is going to die. Two of my wheel studs are fugged from my friend over-torquing the lugs on them, when I specifically told him how much torque to put on them. So I'm running 2 wheels that are missing 2 lug nuts (not missing, just stripped from trying to put them on the busted stud). I torqued the wheels just fine now.

So seriously WTF.

 

Time to press in new wheels studs. This is a safety issue, so put it at the top of the TO Do list

 

**** two of my studs were stripped on the same front wheel, i just slapped on my pro stars n was running at the track with 3 lugs on a wheel haha. i got like 3 passes then someone saw n told on me.

 

I got the studstoday. Will be putting them on tomorrow.

 

Mine is lowered 1" and makes the same thumping noise going over bumps in the front. Sounds pretty nasty. I also have the MM caster/camber plates and I think the noise is due to that.

 

Yeah something isn't right. Nothing should make a car sound that bad. If I can recall, it also made noises when I braked too.
I'm going back up to my buddies house today or tomorrow to maybe check if the control arms are fully tightened and what not.

The drop is sexy though [8D]

 

Let me know if you find anything brother. I've been too busy to get underneath mine.

 

i also have lowering springs and CC plates... on hard turns sometimes my car makes that thumping knocking noise and it squeaks all day.. its so annoying

 

How much do the vogtland springs lower it? Im on H&R Supersports with no C/C plates and i have no squeaks or thumps. Just get under the car again and check your work to be sure nothing lose or installed incorrectly.

 

something is wrong or your wheel offset is wrong... stop driving it and fix it
