Default Tire Squeel during Low Speed cornering..

In preperation for shooting my upcoming series TEC TV!! (See Tech/Misc Section for details!), I just recently purchased a 95 DX, EG 4 door Automatic...

So I brought the thing out and As I made a right turn at only a mere 10mph..I hear "Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr r", as if I'm taking this same turn at about 70mph. It does it under ALL TURNS but mostly when I'm making a right hand turn.

Now I jacked the car up and inspected the front end as best as humanly possible, I do the majority of all my own work but I will admit that I'm not heavy on suspensions, I consult for that, yet I do the physical labor on my own. As I sit here wondering..I've developed a few causes and I wanted to see if anyone shared my opinion..

I'm thinking it's the Lower Control Arm on the right side..either the bushings or worn or even worse it's bent, or the tie end Rods are shot on that side to. Anyone ever have this problem? What did u come up with?

is it a creaking noise as you turn the wheel?

or after the wheel is turned and you start to roll it makes the creaking noise?

I dont think its a creaking noise, more of a squeeling noise by his explanation of it which is "Errrrrrrr r"

How is your alignment? That would be my first guess 2nd to REALLY crappy tires.

Well i will clarify the noise..

Imagine yourself exiting a highway, and the turn steepens, as you approach the apex without reducing speed. As u go pass the apex at speed, ur tires begin to protest and sound out...THAT SOUND..but at like 5mph.

I called the previous owner today and he said that he recently hit a curb on the front Passenger side...So now I'm thinking..Ok yea maybe it's out of alignment or he Shitted on a control arm or something...but under inspection, the control arm is FINE, bushing and everything intact..

So i'm kinda soughta with you on the alignment thing...and yea the tires sitting on the STOCK steels, narrow pathetic joints not even rated to 100mph.
