So I've had the eibach springs on the car for 5 days now and all of a sudden I started hearing this sorta loud clunking/clicking sound from the front wheels as I'm turning. Took the wheels off, checked and tightened everything, looked for anything rubbing or that would be possibly causing that sound and we didn't notice anything. Can anyone relate or possibly help determine what the issue is?? Thanks in advance gents!

And also, when the wheels are off and the car is jacked up, it doesnt make any noises at all.

Is it a continuous noise as you turn the wheel...like clunk clunk clunk

Or one noise after you have turned the wheel a bit...like 3/4 of a rotation then a clunk and nothing for the rest of the rotation till lock out.

No it's not continuous, it's just one or 2 clunks as I turn. Car drives fine, doesnt pull to any side. It's just when I turn that I hear the noise.
 
I think someone mentioned this is another thread where you posted this but it’s likely a binding issue from the spring not being seated correctly. Which is why you don’t hear it while it’s in the air.

It can be some other things as well but that’s usually the cause.
