Default I need help! Coilover issues
I have a very slammed accord sedan. When I hit almost any bump my upper control arm sounds like its colliding with my wheel well. My cars lowest point is 2 inches, which is my cat. But the sounds almost seems like my coils bottom out. I still have 1/3 left of thread so I imagine that's not the case. But would tubbing my wheel wells help? Any other recommendations?

uhh....so is your shock bottoming out, or is your control arm hitting? have you tried trouble shooting this at all before getting on a forum to ask if you should tub your wheel wells?
