Grinding Noise after Alignment

[702TrafficCone]

Hey guys, so I got an alignment done today (finally) and noticed some noise coming from the front right, I think, now.

The car has BMR SP080 springs, CB005 cradle lock-out, and BMR Camber Bolts. The car didn't make any of these noises before, and it almost sounds like it's the tires or wheels rubbing on the struts, and only does it when I'm turning at speed.

So, the tires are now really rubbing, or the technician that worked on my car didn't tighten something down completely... I'll take the car back to the shop tomorrow morning to have them check it regardless, but just looking for input on what I could look for myself too, since I'm the one that had installed everything.

TIA!!

did the alignment guy forget to tighten the tie rod ends when doing the toe setting?

Ended up being my wheel rubbing on the strut. Went back to the shop and the added in more positive camber. All good now.

What was your camber set at when it was rubbing ?

What was your camber set at when it was rubbing ?

It was at -1.4/-1.5 Driver/Passenger

Now it's at -0.8/-0.3

You have the camber bolts right ? why such a variance from left to right.

Yeah, I do have the bolts. No clue on the variance. Left might actually be -0.5...
