New Shocks And Springs Rubbing And Noise?

Today I went to a local mechanic by my house to get my tein spring put so I left the car and came home so like in 25mins he come to my house saying that my rear passenger shock is badd, I have koni yellows... So I go with him to check it so I he showed me the the ring on the bottom of the shock was broken so I told him just put it back and when I get $$ I will order one shock, so he tells me he cant put it back on because it wont hold my springs and that I need one asap so I had to go to pepboys and buy a pair of shocks so the ones they had are called Monroe shock and struts I needed them so I got them both for $160 ok so I came back home gave him the shocks and left so later on I picked up the car everything was fine maybe like 2hrs later the passenger rear side tire started to rub from the inside when I hit a bump or anything so I went to my friends house and now when I was coming home that same side that is rubbing is making like a rattling noise... What could it be?

If the C ring was bad you could have welded it on to the shock no?

monroe's are crap for 1, two, not designed for drop springs, and its probably from a bad install, id check to see if ur tires are rubbing the fenders/fenderwell

No way bro u never wanna weld a shock unless its on the mount,even then it can be dangerous b/c some shocks are gas filled, yea BOOM not good. even the liquid filled ones shouldnt be welded cause it can change the chemical makeup causing negitive effects.
