Wierd noise from right front wheel

ok guys, i recently lowered my car with D2's. And now when i make a sharp left turn, the right side of my front wheel is making this clunking noise. its realyl wierd, anyone know what this could be or know how to fix it? i thoguht it might be my hub bearing, but i checked it and the boot looks great, no leaking oil. maybe the rotor?? and yes i made sure all my lugs are tight. seems like i can't fix the problem. i get a lil worried cause i don't want my axle to break off when i'm turning, that would be bad

Clicking noise when you make a sharp turn

It sounds like your CV joint bearings are bad, even if the boot is intact, they still may be damaged. Try replacing the bearings or even the entire axle. Keep it cleep and if it doesn't fix the problem, pull it out and return it.

Same problem on mine. Found out that the right side front clunking was that the sway bar end-link was completely broken.

It's either the cv or the wheel bearing, had similar noise and changed my hub w/ bearing, noise gone now. My boot was also intact. Have someone check the bearing first.
