17x11"s making noise after modifying f-wells?
17x11"s making noise after modifying f-wells?
I just put the ZR-1 style 17x11's on my car wrapped in 315's. I had the bump stops completely removed and cut off the "inner-fenderwell" and beat in parts of the outter fender-well where it looked like it may rub. On the car lift it looked like i had plenty of room. Well i drove the car yesterday and when i make HARD turns the rear makes a "sqeaking/squealing" noise when the car body rolls. If i make a hard right turn it sqeals on the left. I cannot see where the tires are rubbing if they are at all. Could it be a noise with my actual rear-end after putting bigger tires/wheels on. I'm clueless because i can't see where they could possibly be rubbing at. When i drive normally there's no noise at all only under hard turns. ANY HELP!?!?!?!?!???

You're going to have to find where its rubbing. Excessive body roll - as on a drag car with the front sway bar removed - will cause major rubbing problems. Weak bushings in the panhard rod would also let the body shift from side to side under hard cornering loads.
