Either your springs aren't seated, or your shocks could be gone. It's a bit hard to diagnose over the 'net

check your bushings. they could have worn out after being lowered, or if you didnt replace them when you swapped springs perhaps you should have. If you did swap them with polyurethane ones, make sure they dont need to be greased. I've heard of instances where all they needed was some lithium grease to quiet them down.

Sure, but you should hear it at any speed.
