Yes they are noisy. The reason they are noisy is because when installed positioned at the center of their travel they are quiet, but as soon as you drive they move to the edge of their travel and clank against the metal part of the bearing. You can jack up the car, readjust the bearing to center it, but as soon as you go over a couple of bumps it will return to its prior state and clunk. I contacted SPL regarding this to verify I had them adjusted properly and was told the clunking was characteristic of spherical bearings.

You have to live with it. If someone asks you what that noise is put on your cool face and tell them it's your racing spherical end links.
