Installed new shocks, Help!

I just finished installing my new maxspeed springs with performance shocks. When ever i am driving, even at 10mph, if i turn the steering wheel slightly it will make the noise errrrr, like the tires are bald, but my tires have 90% tread on them. Did i do something wrong??or is it that i need a wheel alignment asap?thanx 4 listening and help..

grease the strut bearings because the springs are binding up when u turn.

You can grease the strut bearing but it's not worth it. The problem will come back on later. Just install new struts bearings.

check out the steering and suspension section at www.motorvate.ca - has all the information you need... I also would recommend replacement of the bearings rather than regreasing.
