Default +eibach springs rear noise+

now before anyone says use the search feature, i already have and came out with some good info. well first off i took the car to a shop to get the eibach springs installed. now the rear is making a clunking noise. ive noticed many people have this problem. my question is what is making this noise? is it due to not cutting the bump stop or maybe installing the bushing backwards? just wanna know the easiest way to solve this. right now im driving with eibach front springs and stock rear springs, it started to get dark so i just said screw it. well thanks in advance any help with this would be awesome

get them from here

http://www.optionsauto.com/prodinfo....IN-SPR02-G1497


those are the ones i have and yes we have a thread on this and this will solve ur pain. i have them on but never experience any clunk noise and if u do it is minimal to tell. those are the exact size i use and u will need 5 pairs for the rear and if thats where u hear the sound only do the rears. if u want to do the fronts which i didn't do, it will be like 2-3 pairs for the front.

awesome, thanks that helps a lot. so i would need 5 packs of the silencers for the rear? i already installed the front and there isnt any noise. did you notice when you installed the rear springs they go in crooked? this is what the mechanic is saying. would anyone happen to know this?
