Just lowered it last night on sportlines
This morning when I took it out I turned the wheel and herd a creaking and it keeps happening whenever I turn it once to the right and slightly left any idea what it is?
 
I had the same exact problem with the Sportlines. They are known to cause this, on some 9th gens. Its still a mystery to me, but every time I turned the wheel it was creak. I was told by a mechanic friend it is caused by coil bind. My suggestion is to either live with it, or get a decent set of coilovers like I decided to do, and get the ride height and stiffness you want. From my personal experience, I never had noise issues from Neuspeed Sports (8th gen springs), Road Magnet, or Eibach Pro Kit. I enjoyed them all, I just wanted a serious drop, more than any lowering spring offered.
 
Thanks for the advice I'll live with it for a bit maybe next year coils
