Noise from front left tire when turning?

When I turn my car right, the front left tire makes a ts ts ts ts ts noise. However, it only makes it when I do a slight turn, it will be a slow ts ts ts, then speed up, then if I turn more than 45 degrees, there is no sound. Advice?

If it was more of a very faint "tick tick tick" I would tell you your Driver's side CV Joint was going. (It will only get louder and nastier, until you can't stand it anymore)

Not too big of a problem to fix yourself.

But you say "ts ts ts" - like the sound of air escapaing from a tire? If so, then you either have a slow leak or something stuck to your tire or a bubble in your sidewall.
