i have that problem as well but it happened before i got it lowered but it comes and go's but when i did put my car in to get lowered the guy said the torsion bar was on the way out. it may not be the same thing but you could always find out

take off the rear wheels take out the 13mm bolts on the anti roll bar plate give them and there hole a good wet down with wd 40 and tighten them back up well and thats should be you

thats exaclty the side mine was squeeking at and after doing as i said it stopped and never returned, it looked like the 13mm bolt had worked loose just enough to allow the anti roll bar plate to move up and down causing the noise
