Default 70K no mods... what to expect???

guys, need advise here - i'm a newbie. i have a 98GS4 it's about to hit 70K - did'nt do much on the engine but change oil every 3K , tranny oil at 60K, basically all fluids. now i'm hearing noises outside of my car and i'm curious if there's anything i should expect around these miles

i've put 20's on it and changes the shocks n springs as well when it got to 65K-was it the joints i'm hearing, i'm also hearing something on the brakes but i just changes my pads n checked everything.

The 20's will add alot of unwanted stress like TLW said Try putting your stock wheels back on and see if you still hear the noises.....Have your brakes been done... check all bushings and any suspension part that will move under a load... Good Luck..
