I am pretty sure its normal, my friends did the same thing, I think you can buy things that can be put on the coils to silence them.

Edit: Did they always make the noise?

i just got them. it sounds like the damper as opposed to the coil. hmmm... they still seem to work fine.. i'm just wondering if it is normal.. i still have those rubber insulated things off my rear ones.. maybe if i fab those back on i won't hear it anymore..
