Default Spacer question (i have a problem)

So i just installed some 25mm spacers/adapters on my car and i went for a test drive and all was fine...for like 10 min.

I made a right hand turn and i heard a LOUD pop in the right front wheel...and it continued to do it rythmatically as i rolled, but stopped when i went straight.

So obviously i thought CVs...but no.

I took off the front spacers and it went away.

Help.

rubbing fender-liner/bumber edge? is it only when you turn, or does it pop going straight as well? if turning, is it right, left or both?
