What is this mystery noise?

Over the last week I have been hearing a metallic clicking sound coming only from my driver's side front and rear wheels. It seems to happen most around 1k-2k rpms, but it may still be happening at higher rpms and I'm just not able to hear it over the engine.

I recorded the sound yesterday while the car was off the ground and maybe someone can tell me what this problem sounds like. The other thing to note is that the car doesn't feel like it is driving any differently since I started hearing this.

I found out from another group of Evo owners that the sound is the retaining nut for the valve stem on my RPF1's that has fallen off and is now rolling around in the wheel. I need to go have my tires taken off to get it fixed.
