Default Accord 00 Wheel sound

Alright I got a slight problem with my 2000 accord whenever I make right turns any size short or long there is a rubbing sound that sounds like its the rotation of the wheel rubbing on the fender.

I just bought these off EBay...http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWN%3AIT
I kinda was thinking maybe a new set of springs would give the car the lift to stop the rubbing ....BEING I JUST BOUGHT 4 COOPER TIRES FOR 200 BUCKS....and really hope nothing happens to the tires. heh

Send them back!! Those arn't going to help anything. $35 "coilovers", please tell me your joking?!? Seeing that you paid $200 for all four tires, I assume you have factory wheels/steelies. Does the car sit uneven?? How many miles are on the car? Have the wheels bearings been replaced??

Yeah the car sits uneven. I measured it a few days ago and the left is higher than the right. I figured it might be the springs or something

The cars got 66k on it. what do you think it could be

$35 ebay coilover sleeves = shit.

you get what you pay for. good suspension parts go for several hundred bucks.

put the stock parts back in ASAP befre you wear out the new tires or break something while the car sits uneven.

I think he's saying it sits uneven stock. Might be a blown strut.
