I had my Tokico struts, and my S tech springs installed professionally, well now I have some problems.
Yes I did get the lifetime allignment also.
My problem, my springs make noise on sharper turns, like the springs are slipping, moving, etc. This can make my car sometimes pull left, sometimes pull right.
The ride is far better than before, but obviously I have a problem. Could my tires be rubbing the springs? Or what else could be going on? Has this happened to anyone else.
I have a 2001 LX coupe. 17 inch rims tires are 215 40z R17 87W
I bought the springs and struts, and both did say they would fit a 2001 LX coupe.
Any comments?

The back feels great, it also looks great, but Its been like a week and I highly doubt they are breaking in.

 

with 215 wide tires id say ya u might be rubbing...also make sure all the bolts and such are tight for the suspension.

 

this probably isnt it...but theres a ridge in the cup of all shocks and the bottom of the spring should be seated in there. they tend to naturally sit there, but if they dont they might make some weird sounds under 500 pounds of pressure.

 

I watched them seat them correctly. I'm getting them looked at next Friday. Maybe its a torque issue?

 

No. You CAN NOT run 215 tires on a honda and not rub (unless uve messed with the wheel wells) 215s rub while making sharp turns. 205s Dont

 

The thing is, my tires and struts, do not show any signs of rubbing, at all. But, my springs seem to be very loose on the front. Are all S Techs the same for Civics? And the bump rubbers, did you guys get four or just two for the rear struts?
I'm pretty sure the front came without bump rubbers, and my fronts are just loose, which lets them move under tension while I make turns.
The back springs seem to have much more tension. It definitely seems to be the front springs being loose. I cannot find the model number of the springs I have, yet.

 

Aww crap, my Tein springs are fake...... I just went on Tein springs website and they list ways to tell if your spings are fake, mine are....
First if your Tein springs have a Tein sticker on them pull them back off and get your money back, second look at the box, third go here...

So now, I will buy them from an official shop factory authorized dealer.
