You probably have a spring seat bushing that's slightly misaligned. Try some spray grease on the spring seats and see if the noise goes away.

Mine had a bit of a groan every now and then after the car was shut off and as I was walking away. That lasted for a bit and now they are quiet. I guess everything settled.

It went away.
But it didn't really happen while I was getting out, it would happen when I was already 25 feet away.....it would groan once or it would kind of ping like things were settling. Doesn't do it now and it has been about 2 months since the install. Hasn't done it in some time now. I kinda forgot it used to happen. It didn't happen alot.
