FRONT passenger wheel clunking niose

Hi guys, I have a clunking noise from the front passenger wheel for a while now. I checked all the parts all the bushings and nothing seems to move a milimeter. Then I tried to move the rotor (after removing the wheel) and the rotor will move a little as seen on the video and makes very similar sound. I checked second wheel and I think it makes the same sound. Does anyone have idea what the clinking sound might be. I am lowered on Neuspeed RACE springs (stock shocks) and ride 18" rims with 215/35 tires. I am sure the suspension have hard times with such setup.

Video of the rotor movement (I think this is normal??)

Any advice is welcome and appreciated.

Rotors look fine. Could be strut mounts. They especially clunk when going over bumps.

Re: FRONT passenger wheel clunking niose

struts and mounts are well known for noise on these cars. control arm bushings are known to crack also
