This is my bilstein B10 setup with concentric top mounts

Only just fitted them and theres alot of noise and you can feel in the steering its not smooth going from lock to lock. have i missed something?

Feels like the upper plate with the bearing in is rubbing against the top mounts

Dont really undersatnd what you mean... have you left the GM 'plate' on with the bearing - or removed it?

Looks like the top rubber seat/setup is scrubbing the bottom of the metal topmount. I've heard this can happen with normal shock setups and only coilovers work...

Thats due to spacing, and on eccentric top mounts that you need coilovers.
