Clunking/Knocking While Steering at Low Speeds After Warming Up

After the car has warmed up, I'm hearing/feeling a clunking/knocking noise when turning the wheel at low speeds. The noise seems to be coming from the front passenger-side of the car. I guess it could be making the same noise at higher speeds, as well, but I'm not able to hear it. I'm pretty sure that this happens even when the car is NOT moving, which would rule out something like a CV-joint. I'll have to confirm this just to make sure I'm not lying to you all.

Do you all have any ideas?

my car does the same thing. i am being told its the spring moving because my car is so low. im on JIC coilovers, and my half of my sidewall is inside the fender. i dont think its anything to be concerned about.

Hmm, interesting, but I'm not sure if that's it. It only seems to happen when the car is very warm (after 20-30 minutes of driving on a hot day). And my car is not as low as yours... my tires don't tuck underneath my fenders, as you can see in my avatar.
