Its weird, it seems to only happen when hit bumps. Just wondering if this is normal. I've never had coilovers before, so dont know much about them. Any help would be great. thanks

i'm guessing the kit for our car is the same as others. Did you put the little rubber O-rings around the strut? If you didn't it could cause the sleeve to bang back and forth... producing your knocking noise. Or... it could just be you bottoming out. Slow down over those bumps man... haha

do you have a camber kit? What is it at? What size are your tires 35,40,45?
I have the progress springs and i had 40 series(17 inch) tires, then i got spec 2's and went to a 45 and the tires actually were hitting the wheel wells in the back. My camber was at NEG 1.0 and a had to have it adjusted to NEG 1.5. Not sure if this helps
