turning is ruff

maybe CVs. they are easy to do, and don't cost as much as other cars.
check engine mounts too.(top of timing cover, bottom of timing cover, under air filter on trans, inside left wheel well on trans.)
does it make a different noise for turning left or right?
how about going up and down like on speed bumps?
do you have lowering springs?

but does is the noise faster/slow on right/left turns?
try putting the stock steelies back on, see if it goes away.
lower spring wreck havok on CV joint, big time if it is more then 2"
most likey i thinking CV joints too(95% sure)
other possiblitys:
wheel bearings
aftermarket rims not a perfict fit
differential problems(very unlikey, unless the last owner dropped a $2k quiafe aftermarket differential)
