I just did some major addons to my car over the weekend. Sound system, brakes, wheels & exhaust. Yes it was an expensive weekend.
ok now the problem
after the brakes and wheels went on my steering is very heavy.
i had stock brake rotors front and rear and stock 15" rims as well.
I upgraded to DBA slotted front and read and Bendix Advance pad and VY SS 18" rims with 18/40/235's front and rear (Bridgestone Potenza GIII on the front & Bridgestone Potenza RE040's on the back)
also now when i turn the steering wheel it makes like a creaking sound....
is the heavy steers due to the fact of the new wheels, or could it be something else?
WHen i picked up the 18" rims i think my 15" stock alloys are heavier than the 18"s.
Any idea?
