    Breaking plastic in reverse

    When I'm backing out of a spot with the wheel fully turned my suspension makes a loud popping sound like plastic is braking. I got my control arms changed during the summer and all ball joints but this noise is new. I also have spacers and wheel studs

    It sounds like your tires are catching on the fender liner somewhere. Have you had someone look and see if they can see the source of the noise?

        Are you sure it's related to the steering? Could your valence be getting caught on a wheel stop?

          jack the car up and look everywhere in the fenderwells for rub marks. i would bet you're just rubbing on something.
