i have only heard that sound once. you have to hit like whoops at 60 or 70 mph to get that though. the SS/TC with pedders combo has so much control that the springs rarely cycle in that manner.

thank you for saying this, as this has been my thoughts watching this video

1) the conditions to make that sound are rare
2) it appears the Shocks/struts arnt controling the spring,

is this a SS/SC or SS/TC in the video, i would assume SS/SC

The car is the video IS an SS/SC, and i assume it has a lot of miles. Not that it maters necessarily, but if he's going from a different set of lowering springs, the shocks may be worn.

Something isnt correct with that video....I would say his struts are worn/shot. I pull a sea-doo, already have 47lbs heavier in the rear (hitch assly), sea-doo attached, 4 adults in the car, and have yet to hear my pedders coil bind like that. His struts are the problem, not the springs.

ok so i was doing some digging and i found this video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aY506yy0lPQ

not sure what the clanking noise is but im sure its bad..... anyone got a clue
I dunno WTF is wrong with that guys car. I just went and looked at mine and there is no way at person jumping up and down on the car can do that to my car. I pushed up and down on the trunk lid as hard as I could and they are no where near coil bind. When the car sits there I can get my fingers between the coils easily. They are slightly stiffer than stock in the rear not sure about the fronts. It would take approx 500-600 lbs of extra load on the back to get them to that point.

He would have to be like his name says 395 plus. Even then. I believe if he replaced his shocks it would go away. Are we sure those are pedders springs? They are red but so are lots of other aftermarket springs.

Got my Pedders and steering rack spacers on today. Car feels amazing when cornering now. Drop is decent but that's not what I bought these for at all. I'll take performance and function over looks any day. I'm going to wash my car in the morning then I'll post some pics.
