ok so i bought some f&F coilover type 1s for my 1996 civic ej8. i installed them, lowered my car about 2 or 2 1/2 inch. ever since i lowered it, it makes alot of noise when im driving. i know its not the coilovers because it sounds like two peices of metal scraping eachother. i looked over the front end countless of times and still cant figure it out. my last guess is its the brakes but idk.has anyone else had this issue. ima noob to cars, so any help would be great

Like a squeaking noise? When you turn the wheel at a standstill does it still do it? Could be ball joints

With the car off, try bouncing different sections of the car to determine where it's coming from. I've done this numerous times to figure out where abouts a noise is coming from. I have F&F type 1 on my car as well, I've got some bouncy squeak noises but I think mine might be swaybar end links rubbing my exhaust.

Have a buddy help you out and bounce that car around.
