I have question for you guys....car is stock 2016 hellcat I was running 305 tires on the rear and when I got up around 125mph you could hear what sounded lie the tire rubbing the wheel liner.But never could find it marks showing it. So I wanted get my 60' times better so I done the lock out kit which was very easy to do.Anyway once I got it done it seems now that the sound start at about 110mph. I have tried to find stock measurements to check that the cradle is in line no luck.When I installed the lock out kit I done the passenger side first torque everything done and then done the drivers side so I dont think the cradle is out of line.I also tied to the front wheel and pull it to the rear tires and they seem to be about the same.The car only has 12,000 mles. Any Idea's?? for anyone wanting to do the lock out kit dont read the instruction's the only have to take the 10mm both that holds the brake line loose and the shock bolts loose not out.And the cradle will drop down enough to install the kit.And also the splash shields where the jack notch is.

Not sure why it would sound like that but you are not seeing any rubbing. Could be gear noise? Talked about some things in this thread. I'm assuming you did the BMRs and I mentioned also not to follow the instructions. The cradle drops a lot just by taking 1 bolt out at a time

yes it does it dropped a little more on the passenger side but still far enough on the drivers side.I just had to take shock bolts out and then screwed then in a coupe 3 thread but was still able to slide the spacer in no problem.I'll get a chance to drive it a little more this weekend then maybe a may see some rubbing in wheel liner thats what it sounds like.
