ok i recently changed my agx shocks to coilovers… the coilvoers are set slightly lower height then the agx lower springs…  
nothing is rubbing in terms of tire/rims/multilink/coilover/exhaust…  
after i installed the rear coilovers i now HEAR scraping sound from the rear… it sounds like the brake pads are rubbing the rotor ALOT of something… but when i jacked it up i can still spin the wheel freely by hand…so the pads are floating not pressured  
… i have no idea what is that sound and what the problem is… any ideas?

rotors?pads?hub?bearings?

hey season, remember i had that problem at last yrs fall 240 meet? it ended up being my rotors were having too much play, because the rim i put on were not sitting on the hub correctly. check your rotors if they move back and fourth, and check if your lug nuts are tight.

maybe you put the rims on wrong since u said there were 10 different holes in the wheels for the lug nuts?
