Odd noise during heavy cornering
I'm not sure how to describe this noise, but it's coming from the suspension. During heaving cornering such as taking a freeway onramp fast I hear this odd noise. I don't believe it's the tires fighting for grip because it's a stuttering type of noise instead of a smooth linear screeching. Could it be my tires hitting the fender wells? Or maybe the suspension is fully compressed and starts to bounce a bit due to the tires trying to keep traction?

Check your deflectors in front of your tires. There are small aerodynamic aids in front of each of the tires held in with plastic pins. I had one of these pins disappear on my IS350 after a car wash and the deflector was hitting the tire and making a noise as you describe.
