I just installed Tien S-Techs, Bilsteins, and ST Swaybars. Whenever I turn the wheel I get popping sounds and smell burning rubber in the right wheelwell. From what I've read the popping is from the springs not being perfectly set, but why the burning smell?

i dont think your sway bars are installed correctly. i hope the sway bar is not upside down and is rubbing against your tire.
