Pillow ball tops (coilover people)
I just got some Tein HE with pillow ball tops. I have been on them since Saturday. I noticed that they are a little oud. Is that normal? Ultraej1 says his do the same thing. I'm just wondering if I can stop it, or is that just what pillow ball tops do, they just make noise. thanks for all that can help.

what you mean by loud? describe what you are hearing. clanking should not be one of them
tire noise should be.
mine sounds like a mudbogger cuz of the hyper dampers and falken azzennis

maybe its something else in the car. now that you have a less compliant suspension, the plastic moves more and hits body parts.
try to find the source by sitting in the trunk or back seat while someone drives. you can then isolate whether its a suspension issue or a chassis issue.
my guess is its just some extra noise in the cabin that you never heard before because you had the stock susspension.

It should be more like a vibaration and thump then a clank. A clank would say something is loose, but think of the pillow ball mount as a more solid mount, so that will cause increased noise transfer over stock or rubber filled mounts.

The only noise my Teins make are the springs squeaking in the rear depending on the size of the bump o_O
