Took the “goldie” out on the freeway to blow it out his morning. Moving along about 80 and started to hear strange new noise. Finally figured out that when ever I would hit little dips in the road the tires would hit and rub on, I guess the wheel wells . Never noticed this before but haven’t been at that speed in about a year. Everything fine at lower speeds around town. I have no idea if it is from the front or rear but would new shocks help?

Bring it in to a tire shop and get the shocks inspected and tires checked for excess ware also check the pitch of the tires.

Please confirm that the bushings etc. Are ok.
