a couple of months ago i had to have my control arms replaced... broke off while i was driving... and when the guy installed them he adjusted my tortion bars cuz the car was sitting crooked... leaning towards the drivers side. since then every time i have a passenger with me (sometimes without) i hear a rubber grinding sound from the rear passenger wheel well. so today i pulled off the wheel and saw where the wheel was rubbing.. it isn't damaging the wheel (from what i can tell).. but i wanted to ask, do you think maybe my springs are bad? or is it something else?

you need a ajustable pan hard bar to center the rear wheels you probaly have some worn rear springs causing it to sit all wacked

if i get springs like that then my car will be lowered .8" is that a noticeable difference? should i get better torsion bars to lower the front? what size torsion bars are good for a daily driver that will eventually have a b16?

im not that sure if u need the t/b up front to compensate for the springs in back but ive heard that for a dd it would be best to go around 23-25 mm t/b.....like i said im not that sure b/c i have yet to do this to my daily driver....

good luck,
