lowered car, now some strange knocking noise
lowered car to ~1 finger gap. everything was fine for a few days. i let my girl drive it and she scrapped or hit the front bumper on the passenger side while turning right and there was a dip in the road.
the sound has gotten worse as i have driven it. at first i thought the wheel well plastic trim was rubbing on the tire, its broken off inside there exposing my air filter on my cai. but it happens at even low speed. doesn't sound like clicking of cv joint going out and mostly sounds when driving stright, wether going slow, turning, accelerating, etc. deffinately something around the right front tire though. took off tire and looked at the suspension and all and it looked ok. nothing loose or broken as far as i could tell. could the axle have been jolted outwards somehow? anyone?

Sounds like its probably a CV joint to me. Perhaps your bearing is out of wack... pull hard on the top of the rim in and out and see if it wobbles any.
no, i have progress coilovers. went to get an alignment and had them check it out. said it was the calipers. just read that dust builds up in there and the back plate needs to be moved back. i'll try that. the bering is fine too.
