Default small clicking noise

at no matter what speed rpm, engine on or off my car makes a really faint tick noise when the wheels are rolling no mater what speed like moving foward in the garage. like 1 click per rotation of the wheel and it sounds like a very small twig being broken in half. you can only hear it with the windows down and radio off

any ideas

i believe axel nut noise is only heard once on initial roll...i'm not sure though.

sounds like OP has a nail in his tire.

My first thought was the catalytic converter. It makes ticking noise when it's hot

does it make the noise when you are in gear, or out of gear or both.

I'm guessing you have a bad wheel bearing that's clicking.
