Need Suspension upgrade?

Long story short. I installed the Sportline Springs about 2-3 years ago. And now the suspension feels like ****. I can hear like a "thump" noise sometimes when hitting bumpy roads. I believe this is my factory struts dying on me now. :/ also I believe my wheel bearings are shot. I can hear a wum wum wum wum sound when drivin the car. As I gain speed the noise gets faster. Wen i slow down... It gets deeper in pitch and I can feel the vibrations on my pedals. Seat. Etc

Bearings right??

Thanks or all the help

Check your tires. I found that mine were cupping due to over filling with air and it created wheel bearing mimicking sounds and what not. Also check your front brakes this could be causing the shaking while breaking

I will have the tires looked at. But the noise doesn't change when I brake. It just change in pitch. Even if I just roll the car with no throttle

Nope. Just makes that repeating noise. And it's noticeable! Ugh. I have warranty on my tires. So I will get that looked at first. Then I will update. :/
