Well, the springs seemed to have settled. There is not much noise going on anymore.

I did also just have a Firestone alignment and they did a great job. Car is fun to drive again!

glad everything worked out.

Thanks man.

Right after I got my alignment it seemed that my car was a pot-hole magnet.

Dam I hate choppy roads.

Car rides sweet on the highway though.

im confused as how all of this solved your bottoming out problem? the only way to solve this would be different spring rates or spring/shock set up. How doe an alignment fix this.

BTW i have had eibach on all my cars and bottoming out is the last thing these springs will do, maybe some cheap ebay kit will but i highly doubt its the springs

Did anyone else notice that OP's tires are 1" taller than stock?

A proper Plus One set-up would be 245/40-18.

Tires might be rubbing the fender liners...

Well, after a few days and about 300+ miles, the sound (spring coils bumping into each other?) got less and less.

I never thought or heard of springs doing that so I assumed the sound was bottoming out or a bad spring or shock.

Now I havent heard the sound since.

My tires do rub, but they only do when I turn all the way to either side.
