Default identify this problem

hey guys i have an civic coupe and dropped. i guess it is low with 16's but whenever i go through a dip or a slant, my car would make this weird noise like the tires are rubbing on the fender wall on the [passenger side front] just wondering what things could be damaged if not already thanks

Your tires probably are rubbing. If so, you should be able to see the 'scuff' marks on the tire.

As far as damage... You'll wear your tire out, and I suppose you could mess your fender up depending on how hard the tires are actually smackin em.

This is a dumb question.......
What is it with you lazy people?
If I had such a problem the first thing I would do is LOOK FOR MYSELF!!!
Not come into the forum and ask someone who can not even look at it.
Regardless of what they say YOU WILL HAVE TO LOOK.

Not enough tire clearence. Get a smaller sized tire and no more rub.

Just roll the inner fenders at $35 per arch and your all set.
