Default RSX type s clinking sound coming from the front wheels

about once a week, the wheels will make a clinking sound that slows as the car slows. I hear it when I'm coasting or braking. It will start randomly, and do it for the rest of the car ride.

It's probably not a big deal, but I'd like to know what causes it.

Thanks

Rotors and pads FTW, took me two tries to get it right.
