Default Strange noise...

I posted this question on LS forum but nobody seems to know what's wrong so I wonder if you guys could help me.

I have a 2004 LS430 and I have some kind of grinding noise:
1. When turning, sometimes I hear the noise
2. Sometimes getting in and out of the car I hear noise. When I hear this noise and I go back to the backseat and bounce up and down the noise is even louder.

The noise happened when I had TEIN CS and 19 inch wheels on. I put everything back in stock and the noise is still there.

When I brought my car to the dealer, of couse it didn't make any noise. My father has a friend who is a mechanic. I brought the car there and it also didn't make any noise :mad

I saw a post below https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...4&page=2&pp=15 that the noise could be caused by tie rod. Do you know they have to touch the rods at all when installing the TEIN CS?

Any ideas what a mechanic could check for? I can bring the car back to my father's friend for him to check again.

Thanks for your help
