Coil Over Problem

[Luke_Green]

I installed coilovers last night on my 2005 civic and today when I was driving today I noticed that when I make right turns the car sounds like the tires are chirping like its losing traction but Im not going fast at all and this didn't do this when I was on stock suspension so I know its not the tires being bald. I was wondering if anyone ever had this similar problem and or has a solution to it.

Which side of the car? And how low are you? Do you have a bunch of negative camber? Got pics?

pretty low I can get pics tomorrow, no camber in the front just the rear. After driving it tonight the tires chirp on both sides when making right and left turns at a speed more then 5 mph. My guess is that the alignment is f'd up. To make the car go straight the wheel is tilted. I work at a car dealership so I'm gonna do an alignment tomorrow at work. Hopefully this will fix it.

You answered your own question!





How many miles do you drive to work? The front tires may be completely worn out before you get there.

about half a mile....I made it, did the alignment car does not chirp tires anymore. My coils were actually not matching heights in the front as well that could have been helping to problem.
