I have a 2011 civic si sedan that I have been doing some autocrossing in. Everything is stock other than the camber bolts and wheels and tires. I have 17x7.5 +45 offset rims with 225/45/17 hancook RS3s.

I had a very slight rub on the plastic inner well before the bolts. That has gone away but now there is this noise that sort of sounds like when you hit those rumble strips on the side of the highway. Not that loud, but similar. Also, it happens after you make a quick, very sharp turn. Almost like when the suspension is rebounding.

I looked under the car and nothing seems to be rubbing. I'm not sure where to look next. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Jared

 

Could it be just one of your tires rubbing on the inner fender.
those bolts do let you move the top of your tire outward? don't they

I'm not too familiar with those just guessing

 

The slip at times and I am thinking that one has slipped out of place. I accidentally hit a pothole and mine started sounding like something was moving when I turned. I checked and it had moved a bit out of place. I took them off and no more noise.

 

I looked around the wheelwell and couldn't find anything. It happens when you start to come out of the turn, but not before or during. I'm going to put the original rims on tomorrow and see what happens.
