I have Stance GR+ Pro coilovers (Just installed)

I am getting a noise from my suspension... It sounds like the spring is turning with the wheel.... (Giving a sound as if someone were hitting the spring with a hammer - leaving the spring with a ringing noise)

It happens as I am turning sharp left or right. Usually slower speeds (Like Parking lots, or sitting still)

Could improper pretension on the spring be the cause of this? Should I add more pretension?

Thanks,Justin

Also, If you try to say something to me about not using the search function - Please do the search yourself, and show me evidence of what you find before you say anything about it.

Thanks a million bud!!

I suppose typing stance would have done me alittle better in the search - but I figured it was going to be more of an overall issue... I never expected poor QC to be the answer....

You are very welcome. QC was bad, but their customer service is pretty good. Think about the service you will get when yours blow up in the future. Stance GR+ Pro is a good set of coilovers and you won't regret.
