Damn, I feel like I'm posting stuff in this damn tech talk thread every day. I just changed out my wheels for some OEM BBS's. I also just came back from Richmond and Virginia Beach to Fredericksburg. I was driving last night and I heard some clunking slightly. It's noticeably getting louder. It only happens when I start putting on the gas. That's why I don't think that it's my coilovers. Any other ideas as to what it would be? It sounds like it's coming from the right rear.

Check yer lugnuts.

I ALWAYS check mine by hand after the impact.

Or use a torque wrench.... You actually use an impact to install lug nuts?

Garrett93

Yeah seriously. All of the lugs are torqued. So, what's next?

Tie rods are straight, right? My mr2 did this and it was a hell of a trip before I figured it out.

Garrett93

Yep and I should also mention that its an 02 WRX.

I know you said oem BBS's but do you need rings?

Fabrik8

Now that we know what car it is, have you ever heard the "strut clunk" that's really common in the rear of WRXs?

Garrett93

I was thinking that, I didn't see any when I put them on. But these are not the STI BBS's. These are BBS RK, they were a factory option.

And Fabrik8, I'm on H&R coilovers. I sort of swept away the idea of the struts because the noise happens when I put on the gas, not when I'm coasting/hitting bumps etc. Could it be the rear diff?
