    Noice when turning (after switching wheels)

    I just bought a 2001 530i. It came with 20 in rims I drove it like that for a week and the car did not make any noise. I bought 18 inch BMW wheels and put them on the car. Now when I turn to the right it makes a clicking noise. Can anybody help me?

    I think I found the problem. The right rim was rubbing on the strut because the rims I bought are high offset and the car is a medium offset.

    Did you mean 100 ft lbs?
