    Was triple C shop the place folks recommended on here? I had some Bilsteins installed on my truck and i hear/feel a little rubbing when i turn my wheel past a certain point if im backing up and correcting an angle or parallel parking. Not sure what that sound is but it def wasnt there before. Not sure if i should just take it back to Texas Hitch and Truck

    Sound like its rubbing plastic or metal? Stick your head under there might see a scrub mark.

    Post pics. I had to trim some of the plastic fender flare with a zip knife. Easy peasy. Tire size?

    Yeah my quote from them was outrageous last year...around $95/month and I have a pretty clean record the last 11 years or so. I ended up going to state farm at $59/month for the same coverage

    Trying to decide what to tackle first...doors, floors, or roof. Probably just do it in that order anyway

    I just did doors and the back wall, and the difference was amazing. I have some leftover stuff laying around somewhere, if you need it. It's Noico.

    Here some pics of the wheels.

    this is the front passenger side where I believe I hear the noise.

    At first i thought it was this arm because of how close it is to the wheel but looking at this i noticed how close the front end is as well. Yes this pavement princess is dirty please dont call CPS on me i will wash her this weekend.
