I have an 06 G35 coupe. It's lowered with Tein S-techs, but everytime I go over a bump ONLY my rear left wheel scrubs. Is this a strut issue?

Also, this morning I was trying to get to work, but couldn't even get out of my driveway due to me not even being able to get the daggum car out of Park. It took me 15 minutes to finally get it in reverse. It has happened recently, but never took this long to get it out. :wtf2:

Can anyone help me with any of the following issues?

First, what do you mean by "scrubs"? Second, AUTO or manual?

It is an Auto.

The tire hits the fender, sorry.

Thanks,

No, 20". It's just the rear left tire though. The rest are fine...

Were they professionally installed? You may want to look at getting a set of shocks...

As for the AUTO not engaging, it could be a few things. First, make sure that the shifter is seated properly on the shaft. Next, it could be a brake switch problem. Before taking into a shop, make sure that your switch is engaging properly when you depress the brake pedal.
