While i was making a sharp turn, my friend behind me in a different car said my car lifted and my passenger rear wheel lifted off the gorund!!! I was like .. "uh-uh you lie" but he swears it did. I didn't feel anything...

Can anyone explain this? I have a 2"-drop and 17" rims.... maybe this has to do with it?

How fast of a U-turn were you making?

This is very likely. Front wheel drive racing cars do this on every corner. What kind of springs do you have for your 2" drop. If they are Ground Controls, they use like 500 or 600 lb/in springs and could easily make that happen.

when i go up this one incline my back right wheel feels like it lift off because of the angle.
i have ground controls and i dont actually know if my wheel lifts up but it feels like it does

This is very common. Don't be surprised, you will hardly notice a difference inside the car.
