hi guys,

I've been hearing some weird sound from the back of my car, happened after i changed my rear absorbers and springs ONLY...

Absorbers are KYB Adjustable Soft-Hard
Springs are TRD lowered springs, not sure about the model
My rear tires are: 235/45/17

my friend is using 225/45/17 on his ST202 with the same springs and absorbers.

are my tires two wide for the springs? the Mechanic at tire shop was unable to identify the problem

Help Appreciated

could you describe the sound? metal clunk, rubber rub, creaking?

Sounds like the center nut is loose - try tightening that.
