bad noises...

I'm getting a bad clanking noise from my back right wheel when I go over any nominal bumps and dips. My 01 ex sedan has been lowered with neuspeed sports and a SCP camber kit in the rear. I also just put some 17" wheels yesterday with 215/45 tires. I dunno what the noise is. I've tired looking for it while the car was in park by bouncing/ shaking it with no success. I know it is not anything in my trunk and it's not the arm hitting the exhaust. does anyone have a solution? any advice? should i take it to a shop? to honda? please help me. thanks

edit: i'm pretty sure it's not a blown strut because i'm not bouncing everywhere

Remove the carpet and check if u're spare tire is bolted down properly. Also if you have a jack with wrench, make sure it's not loose under there.

does the noise happen when you take tight turns also?
