Default Clicking noise turning wheels when stationary..

I have a 2006 Audi A6 3.2 sedan. When the car is on the ground and stationary and you turn the wheels left to right I am hearing a clicking noise from what seems to be towards the tires/wheels/wheel wells. I can't seem to pinpoint the location. It does it more so on the left side than the right but it does do it on both sides. Again, this is when the vehicle is stationary and the weight of the car is on the tires. When the vehicle is raised off the ground and the weight is not on the tires and you turn the wheels from side to side, the noise is not heard. When driving the vehicle you can hear the noise when turning at slow speeds and when turning at high speeds the noise is faster. The clicking does not happen when driving the vehicle in a straight line. The a6 has roughly 80,000 miles and none of the boots seem to be busted, torn, or too worn out. I don't think it is the CV axle's. It seems to be coming from the upper portion of the wheel well, but I cant really tell. Any advice or helpful hints or TSB's or pinpoint test would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
