Default 2 Quick questions ?

sup guys,

1st Question: i have KYB AGX's and intrax springs.. i am in love with the ride, but there seems to be a problem with the rear springs.. my question is " is it okay if the first 3 round coils of the rear springs are touching each other even when the car is jacked up? (from the top that is)

second question: i just put on falkens azenis and i think that the ride is simply too loud.. now i had stock tires before this, but has anyone had this problem too ? or am i supposed to deal with it and will eventually get used to it ? thanks for the help guys

look up a picture of the intrax springs, and if the picture doesn't match yours then there's a problem.

the touching coils are called "dead coils". they help to determine the ride height. if they rub and make noise, just put some rubber hose around them. my eibachs were like that. sticky tires = loud (typically). there have been efforts to make quieter performance tires (yoko avs db)
