Just bought a 2006 Mustang GT that had the Eibach pro lowering springs installed.......when turning the wheel there is a 'creaking noise' mainly at low speeds...

could it be the rubber insulators were not installed or?

car has 20x 8.5 wheels on front

thanks,

From Steeda's website "These upper mounts eliminate the "popping" sound that is common on lowered cars when the factory upper mount fails". Sounds like you might need to upgrade the upper strut mounts.

really not a popping sound.....more like a 'plastic rubbing ' sound.....front tires do not appear to be hitting anything either....

Did you replace both bushings? Did you upgrade them? GT500 bushings are only $60 shipped
