    So iv'e recently changed my 16z on my vs to 20z and i can hear a scraping sound from the drivers side rear, mostly when braking, quite sure its not the brakes because it wasnt doing it with my 16z on, may sound like a stupid question but its pissing me off along with all the other rattles and **** im trying to fix lol, thx in advance
