does it make the noise especially when you turn your wheel? i'm pretty sure that it's your bump stops then... have you gotten your car lowered? or maybe saggy springs?

i'm pretty sure that it's your bump stops... but i don't understand why it would all of a sudden make that noise tho.... i would understand if your car is lowered, but it's not. i would try to wd-40 up near the strut shaft near the bump stops (if you can even reach up there). Does anybody else have any suggestions?

?

this may sounds stupid, but what do you mean by rubber sound from the front of your car?

all I can picture in my head are the tires squeaking on the ground since you're not moving....
