clicking noise suspension Help me please!
does anyone w/ a set of 20's on a 2nd gen. gs get that clicking noise everytime they turn. It sounds like the clip from the shocks and springs is rubbing against the wheels.

I didn't... until a few weeks ago, and not when turning, but pretty constant.
Going to be taking it apart this upcoming weekend, its probably either a shot brake pad, and caliper on rotor noise, or something else associated w/ it.
If you get it only when turning, I'd check your clearance. Do you have a different bumper? With mine, my wheels scrap the rock guards whenever hitting big bumps, but I guess I'm just used to it now heh. I'd check clearance on both the skirts and the front bumper when turning and see if anything is close, if not, what you are thinking is probably correct.
Never know till you tear her apart !

Bingo! I have clicking noises as well - mostly on right turns. On the driver side front brake the pad retaining clip is loose. The clip and perhaps the pads are jingling around creating a rather annoying racket. I have been trying to track this sound down for over a year - it just recently got bad enough and easy enough to reproduce that my mechanic was able to track it down.
