Video was taken when turning left somewhat aggressively. Comes from right passenger side and car is a 2022 GT with 12k miles. Just lowered on steeda springs with camber plates. Wheels are 275/35/20 in fronts. Any idea what would be causing this sound?

What wheels are they? Take some pictures of the wheels

Also I didn't really start hearing this until I lowered the car and got my alignment.

I listened to the video but can't speculate what it might be. Occam's Razor indicates it's related to the springs, wheels, or alignment.... what does the shop say or did you install yourself?

I would like to help, but I also don't want to walk you through obvious things... lug nuts are torqued? Was the suspension clocked under load?

Are the new wheels any bigger... Any signs of the wheel rubbing in the fender? Any rubbing of the caliper on the rim?

No sign of rubbing that I have seen and tried to see as much as possible from ground level while turning wheel. Springs were installed by shop and then at a scca approved shop I did alignment. That's when I first notice some odd sound on my stock PP1s but it was very minor. Was after the alignment. I then put on wheels myself while chalking the back and fronts while putting on the wheels. Noise is more prominent now with a bigger wheel setup. 275/35/20 in the fronts. I have a front bumper conversion (Mach 1). Still waiting back from a reply from the shop. Most likely busy right now. There is no rubbing marks on the tires.

Wheel bearings don't have the best reputation on these cars...

Should I hear wheel bearing while driving ? And why is it after I lower the car that I'm now noticing it lol it's literally only when turning left. Not while driving straight

What's the chances of it going out in 12k miles lol

DId you do headers recently? I know apples and oranges from what you have recently had done, but hear me out. My 22 GT did EXACTLY the same thing (noise sounded the same, and ONLY when turning left) not long after I had headers installed. Come to find out they were extremely close to the frame rail on the passenger side and only when I turned left they would come in contact with the frame rail. Drove me NUTS for 2 months, I did wheel bearings, and everything. Finally saw the wear marks on the paint... Plus had a friend ride along and feel the floor board while driving, could literally feel right under his feet where it was touching...

Yeah I did headers before I did the suspension. The after lowering the car and getting the alignment it was settle with the stock PP1s now with the 20s I put on it's much more noticeable. Would I be able to see if it's rubbing if I lay on the ground?

I'm like 100% it's not the wheel bearing because why would this happen after I did suspension upgrade ? lol
