Angry Suspension squeaking...need opinions...

Hi, okay here's my situation. I have Tein Basics on my car since around September, and I haven't had any problems with them at all. No squeaks, nothing. Yesterday I rotated my tires (25,000 miles) and decided to drop the front two springs down another thread (I hope that makes sense). Today while I was driving around I noticed that every time I would make a right turn the front suspension would make squeaking sounds. I figured this could be from the fact that the springs were decompressed since I lowered them one more thread, and they could just be getting settled again? I have no idea what else it could be, and I would like to figure out this problem as soon as I can. Any other opinions are welcome, thanks guys/girls!

Thanks for the input, but I don't know about going back to stock suspension just for that, it took us a while to put the Teins in as it is, no other solutions huh? Thanks though Dazed, I appreciate it.
