Could be a busted strut. What year is your civic? If its still under warrenty have Honda replace the struts before you put your new springs on.

suspension

no the civic is a 2001 the struts seems to work fine i dont get noises when im moving like 10-100 mph its only when im like pulling out of a parking lot and i apply the brakes and turn at the same time or if i hit a small to medium bump going about 15mph so i dont think that the strut is busted because when i move it up and down no noise.

if your cars under warranty, take it to the dealer and have them worry about it.
