Hi I have a 92 Toyota corolla. One problem which just recently started after putting in new front shocks and springs is that the car makes a rattling noise when going over bumps sounds like it's coming from driverside. The next thing is that when I hit curves or bends that go right it makes a scraping sound that comes from the driverside rear end

Did you replace the mounts?

Check the rear suspension for worn out parts

The strut mount at the top of the strut is what I am referring to

I also put new tires and rims size 15 The original rims were 13. Now when I pull off it feels like the front of car is jumping or shaking from the tires

No I haven't changed the strut mounts do you think that could be causing the rattling or the scraping sound
