I just installed the H&R Springs along with the Koni Yellow Sport Shocks. Going from the Base Suspension to this was a little hesitant on the quality of ride but let me tell you
I AM LOVING IT !
Its SUPERB !
But like the title says, I now have a clunking sound over bumps, I am wondering what this is all about ????
I also changed my SwayBars -- Now, I notice the sound from the front and not from the rear.
Can someexpert please chime in .

My tire sizes are
Front 245/40/19
Rear 275/35/19
A rubbing sound is rub rub but this is like its beating an empty tin container.

I had this problem when the dealer installed my setup, which is basically the same as yours. What ended up happening was the tech installed the parts in the wrong order and therefore the shocks were actually pushing through and hitting the bottom of the rear deck. It actually cracked the rear deck and the dealer had to replace that for me as well. I suspect that this is what might have happened to you.

Can you please explain in detail.
