So last week I removed my coilovers and replaced them with standard SRi springs & Bilstein dampers all round. However, it is now pulling slightly to the left when driving in a straight line. There's also a rubbing sound....
I've noticed that the rear's are sitting at different heights...about 10mm difference between them. And it's the left side that is lower so I was wondering;
Would this cause the rear brake bias to be on??
Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Definitely be looking for clean bits if there's a rubbing sound, that's not right at all.

I took it to the garage but they couldn't find the issue! Although they don't have 4-wheel alignment equipment, so I'm going to get a 4 wheel alignment done at another garage. Just hope I didn't damage or twist the rear beam when I fitted the rear springs...

Pulling left just sounds like camber issue, would normally be fronts.

Have you not found the reason for it been a different height on one side yet?

yeah i've sorted the ride height issue now. It was a problem with one of the rear springs.
I think i may have found the reason for it pulling, I think the brake is binding slightly due to a warped disc. As the rubbing sound only happens once per rotation. it's not constant, it speeds up as the car speeds up...
