Hankook V12s pretty much brand new.
Honestly, I dont know if they were loud before. I put like 50 miles on them before the car ended up sitting for 6 months lol
I might try inflating them all to like 60psi again and leaving it in the air over the weekend.
Only other thing I can think is that I havent had the car aligned since all the suspension work so that might be the cause.

After putting clunk fix on, I still have clunking... But I think it's the end links, so my question is there a beefier version for the rear just like the ford escape fronts? Thanks

that could be it. i know usually if the toe is off itll cause some choppiness and cause more than usual road noise. i have the hankook V4 ES's on mine and theyre nice and quiet.

not really. I had clunk then I went back and tightened the poop out of the nuts on them and I had no more clunking. They have to be stupid tight.

We used air tools, so they should be plenty tight...
VIP... Are those the rear end links your talking bout? And how much they cost...

you cant really rely on air tools to tighten end links....you need a hex key to ensure the endlink stud isnt just spinning when being tightened....try it again, by hand, with a hex key.
yep, rears... they were about $100

Never removed end links when putting on clunk fix... I think they just need to be replaced

So the mp3 ones are beefier than the msp ones, got a part number?
im not sure if they are from the factory but the MOOG ones at autozone are, plus they dont use the hex key design. cant think of the number but do some searching around the forum and youll find em. actually they might be from rock auto....
