Unhappy

I have a 1998 GS400 on 20x8.5 in the front and 20x10 in the rear. I have the Nitto NT555's with 235/45 in the front and 275/30 in the rear. The car is dropped on H&R springs. When I turn right from a dead stop, I hear a couple clicking sounds coming from my drivers side wheel. It doen't happed when I turn left. I only hear it when I turn right from a dead stop or a slow roll. I haven't taken it to the dealer yet, but I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions. I tightened up all the lug nuts but my friend said it may be the wheel bearing needed to be lubed up. Any suggestions or comments will help.

Thanks

When I put bigger wheels on my IS3 i had a weird noise but i dont know if id describe it as a clicking sound... My tire was rubbing on my fender lining. After a while it chewed the plastic up and it would rub on my tire and make a funny sound. It would only happend when i Was going slow and turning at a stop light or something... just a thought..

BLACK_IS300---Thanks for the opinion. I will lift the car today and check if it's rubbing. Maybe it might be that simple. Otherwise, i'll take it to the dealer and have them figure it out. I just hope they don't give me any problems since I got some 20's and the H&R drop. Oh we'll see. Thanks

I'm not familiar with the GS suspensions.... but, how close are the sway bar end links to the springs?
