Default Noises after lowering 03 cobra.

Listen to these noises and tell me what this is all about. I am at a loss. In the first video the wheel even wobbles. It is only the driver's side rear.

I just lowered my 98 Cobra and now I'm getting the exact same noises in the rear as you are. I can hear it really bad from inside the car. Sometimes it's nice and quiet and then it starts creaking and stuff like yours does. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It turned out to be the wheel bearing. I think it was already going bad and then the fact that we lowered it, then took a hard turn put alot more stress on the bearing and caused it to shatter. Once we replaced it, it was all good.

Hmmm, I might have some deeper problems with mine then. Hopefully someone chimes in and gives me an idea.

Glad yours wasn't too serious. Sweet Cobra too.

I just started getting something similar as well, sounds very similar to the clanks in the first video, not so much like the grinding in the second video. Not what you intended, but you have given me a place to start looking, thanks!
