So if I turn the wheels to the left, I hear weird sounds. Not necessarily clicking but clunking and shit? The suspension is much tigher than it was ( I just got alignment and a new ti rod ). Any ideas ? If It is something in the suspension, I should probably make tires plus fix that shit since this is all SINCE i got my alignment.
What would you do if you were me?

Im pretty sure thats what it is. And if it is, Im sure tires plus ripped that boot while replacing the tie rod. I will be so fucking pissed. I hate shops that work like this. The idiot couldn't even get my car OFF the lift.

maybe your CV just recently tore?
Even if the boot is tore, it will take quite a while for it to wear out. It wouldn't be from the recent alignment, it would be a coincidence if it is the CV.

i was thinking something along the lines that they didnt really remove it and pryed it out. It has been doing this shit since the second I drove it out of there and it didn't do it before.

It takes quite a while for moisture and dirt to work its way into the inside of the axle if the boot is tore. Ussually the grease dries out and gets all sandy and the clicking starts. Might as well check the other side while your at it.

well i would suggest bringing it back to the shop and ask them, "hey I have this clicking sound that I didn't have before" see what they say :p then you will know for sure what is wrong
Why on earth did you take it to Tires Plus?
