Default Re: Got a thump after lowering

Went back to stock the same day.
Yes, I have faint rub marks on the inside wheel wells, but very faint. That doesn't concern me too much and isn't the noise I'm hearing. I should be able to correct the rubbing with 10mm spacers if it gets worse. The thumping happens on very quick and small road imperfections. It sounds like when the hatch rattles, but it isn't the hatch. It comes from the shock locations. Maybe I'll loosen things up and then tighten after a drive. I don't know.
