A blown shock makes more of a "squeak-squeak" noise. That ticking noise you hear is most likely a bubble or nail/object in your tire..

have you inspected the brakes and ball joints (purely a guess on the ball joints)? a pad could possibly be not seated correctly, causing movement in the caliper.

..a blown ball-joint also makes more of a "squeaking" noise rather than a "ticking" noise. I guess its rly hard to determine where+what sound its making.. but if you did your coil install yourself, I'd just go back and re-tighten everything..

Yeah ticking noises that are only noticeable at low speeds are usually solid objects lodged in the tire like a nail or rock
