Bump stop question
You guys so my car is lowered on H&r super sport springs but for some reason my front end is literally riding on the bump stop and when ever I turn my steering wheel it rubs the bump stop on the shock and it makes the most annoying noise ever
Is it possible to cut the bump stop a little to give the shock a little more travel distance or that is not recommended at all

Cutting bump stops is fine. Remove material from the top of the bump stop (side that goes against the top mount/hat) not the bottom. 1/2" to 1" of damper travel before engagement should be good.

I don't want to cut tooo much maybe like a half inch or something Just enough so when I turn the steering wheel the actual bump stop is on riding on the actual strut and making like a rubbing noise
