back left tire scraping bumper and fender...
I have a '92civicSiRII wich currently has stock suspension and i just bought some used coilovers with shocks.
ohlin shocks, cusco upperpillows, and i have no idea who makes the springs they are kinda a orangeish yellow and they are progressive.
The problem is when i accelerate quickly through a right hand turn or have a few people piled in the car and accelerate quickly the back left tire would rub(making a wicked loud schreeching sound). if i put the new suspension on my car the problem may get worse because it would be lower and closer.
The car tracks straight and the suspension components dont look like they are damaged or bent (comparing the parts to the right side). I cant get the other side to rub no matter how hard i cut the wheel. The tire looks centered in the wheel well too.
Oh yeah my wheels are the same o.d. and offset as stock.
Could it be a bad shock or somethig bent? has anyone else had this problem?
thanks for the help.
