About 2 months ago I heard this rubbin noise and it sounded like my tire was scrapin but I took it to a shop and looked at it and it was my wheel bearing just about cracked in half. Now im hearin the same noise. Its not from the same wheel either. You think its because I lowered my car and put 18s on it? I lowered it 2.2" with Intrax. Would a STB and rear sway bar do anything for this?

My brakes are also makin a clunkin noise, right before I come to a complete stop I hear a clunk. Sometimes they will grind also. Will some Brembo rotors and Axxis pads take care of this or is it something else?

Thanks any help will be appreciated

If you lowered your car with springs only and keep the rest of the suspension factory, you may notice a rubbing type sound and a wobbly start from a stop, but that should be it. I don't know if that's what you're experiencing or at what speeds but if you can relate to what I just said it may just be your drop.
