Ok go I got the Wings West Mini-me Commando wing about a week ago, and I got my Skunk2 coil-overs installed eysterday. Just the front, today I do the rear. I dropped it about 3.5, almost 4 inches...and whenever I hit a bump it makes a loud popping sound, is that the wheel hitiing the wheel well? What can I do to fix this? New shocks maybe? BTW, I'll have pics soon.

Sounds cool man, we deffinitly want to see some pictures. Your problem sounds like you are bottoming out.

yeah, it does sound like you are bottoming out, if you are, then raise that thing up some.. or you will blow a shock, i know.. cuz i did.

A sound like that and you LOVE it? lol Anyway, definitely sounds like you're bottoming out. With a 3.5 inch drop, I'm sure of it. Hell, with a 3.5 inch drop, I wouldn't DRIVE, let alone go over anything less than horizontally planar. You're gonna wanna raise that up some before you end up having to invest in some Koni's . . . out of necessity.

my factory struts only lasted me about 2 months on the SkunK2 coilovers, but thats cause i had my biatch slammed. i only blew two struts though before i had my Koni's put on monday this week. my ride is still rough but thats because i REFUSE to raise my car up!! but ya, dont let your car keep making those noises!! slowing down for bumbs is a good idea
