I think i need to index, not sure

Okay I got a weird problem. Ive been doing some reaserch and think i need to see about re-indexing my springs. I resently installed a set of Tein SS Springs on my car, *didnt replace the shocks i know thats a no no, but im saving to get a whole Type flex suspension anyways* And everytime i go about 40 and only about 40 when im making a turn, i get the pop, pop, pop sound. I dont get it any other time. Im just curious is that cause im halling ***** around corners? Or is that cause the springs aren't indexed correctly?

Yeah i like to take corners fast. Nothing wrong with that is there?

Is it possible that the springs are touching since stock struts are not designed to be dropped? Maybe they compress so much that the springs is actually bouncing off itself giving you that pop pop sound. Just a theory.

Humm its just really weird, ive tried even re indexing them now and no luck. It only does it when it goes about 40 mph lol. Intresting.. Probably is the struts. Oh well. anyone know if im actually hurting something when this happens?
