Hey guys,
I dropped my car yesterday and now I need some help. The car doesn't take bumps very well at all. But I expected it. I hear some rubbing in the back and assume I'm gonna need my fenders rolled. Is this a common thing to do with a drop? My front doesn't rub, however I hear a strectching sound with the steering wheel. I did the work myself and I didn't see any rubber whatsoever. I'm wondering if the old topcap and bottom mount of the spring have to adjust to the new spring? Again is this common? My stats for suspension are below. Front: Stock strut assembly (105k miles) KYB strut insert TEIN S-Spring 1.5" Dropped spring 19" x 8.5 rims on 225/35/19 Back: KYB strut assembly TEIN S-Spring 1" Dropped spring 19" x 8.5 rims on 245/35/19 Now aside from that - the car looks B-E-A-UTIFUL. The rear is soooo wide on 245 tires and dropped. Pictures below. My car is very dirty and I just took them so its night time. ![]() ![]() ![]()

I'm no expert with wheels. Actually, I don't know sh*t about wheels. But it kinda seems like it's a massive drop for those 19's.
