    Weird whirling sound on the front wheels

    So I just installed my BC Racing coilovers and test drove it. I noticed a loud whirling whenever I got below 20mph.

    I use to be running on Tein S-Tech springs with OEM shocks. There were no unusual sounds at all. Should there be a reason why the could happen?

    Also, when I installed the front coilovers I removed my brake calipers to clear my impact wrench. I believe I fastened that bolt a little too tight, could that be the reason why my wheels sound like that?

    my guess was that its a bad hub bearing. it didnt sound as bad as Denvers tho.

    Ya wheel bearings make a whirling sound.
    Jack up your front end and kind of like wiggle the wheel side to side to see if you have any play.

    Not how fast your car goes but how good u drive going fast.
