Icon2 when I turn my wheel I hear a creak

It sounds like it's coming from the right wheel.

I recently put on some new rims(acura fat fives) and got the steering realligned about 4 weeks ago. I noticed the creaking the past couple weeks. It kinda sounds like the creak of a lazy boy chair. Any idea what it is? How to fix?

Could it have been caused by the dudes who installed the new wheels or did the alignment?

I noticed there was grease on the frame under the accordian like rubber thing connecting the wheel and steering. Is that the axle boot? could that be the problem and is it hard to fix? Thanks!

cv joint creak would be heard while driving straight also, sounds like the rubber pad on top of the shock to me spral the shock mount with a little lube and see if it fixes it.
