UPDATE....>>>
so I took my left side wheels off and still was not able to find anything that would cause a tick sound during slow speed driving. There was nothing loose or rattling around. I even did the tire bounce to check if maybe a wheel weight or just anything on the wheel itself would cause the tick and still nothing.
Meanwhile, I took my front 25mm spacers off and will order either 10 or 15mm since now I am much lower with the new V3's and rub with the 25's as I did not when I was not lowered with stock susp.
I put the wheels back on the car, drove around a few streets for about 30 mins and there is still a faint tick sound but not as bad as before but it seems now that it comes and goes...hopefully one day it will just go away for good cause I have no clue.
Oh, I even shut off the ESP off just to see it that was the cause of the tick sound. Nope
