Okay i just throw on some eibach sportline springs dropped her nice she was high up was insane lol. but few questions ride seems too be real smooth even over some good bumps, didn't have to do an alignment which was good but i notice over certain pot holes sounds like hard plastic clunking 2 quick ones mostly in the back, now i think i should got new shock mounts but i kept the origonals on, just spring swap, one other thing i hear a nawing sound when i turn the wheels in front only if the car is not moving or really moving slow, once cars going about 10km/h u cant hear anything anymore, so does anyone think i would solve my Clunking be better atleast? i was also reading somewhere few days ago i might be able to solve my steering turning issues with some good lubricant or grease ? look forward to some good advice Thanks in advance Cheers

You... didn't swap struts too when you did the springs? Uh oh...
LoL it's really not that bad but anyhows i did them about a month ago..
did you cut your bump stops.
I believe the guy who did them did that..
Sorry no they are good lol sorry misread what u asked lol.
your suppose to trim them down .
Do you need to trim the bump stops in the rear on Eibach Pro Kit? I'm getting a clunking in the rear over bumps as well, I don't know if the shop cut the stops or not.

Clunking noises are usually the mounts. Harsh ride (ie. bottoming out the strut) over bumps is usually the bumpstops having not been cut.
Though not always...
Yea that noise you hear in the front is most likely the mounts. My Alero made the same noise, grease will work only for a short time but it'll eventually go back to doing the same thing. If your bump stops have been trimmed it sounds like all 4 mounts need to be replaced
I had new mounts installed on all 4 corners, not sure about the bump stops being cut. It feels like the rear end slides or is loose. Its really hard to describe, when I push on the quarter panel over the rear wheel the car seems to slide around independent of the wheels, like its not connected very well. I'll get some video and see if it shows what I am talking about. I am planning on going back to the shop that did the work (a high school friend) and talk to him. Just trying to get info that I can take to him, he doesn't work on performance stuff much.

To be clear, my problems are only in the rear, the front rides really well. The video doesn't show much, anyone have any ideas what it could be if he did trim the bump stops? I had my money on the trailing arm bushings, I put poly ones in and initially thought that might be the extra noise, but that was before I discovered the play in the rear suspention. Those should stifin the rear end, not make it looser.
