As you said: "Every time the wheel seems to rise; as it goes over a bump".
That would not indicate a CV or brake issue. What year and mileage is your car?
It appears to be suspension-related, based on your description and could well be the strut bearing. The coils rarely fail, but it could be your shocks or bearings. Give the shocks a test by 'leaning' on them and 'releasing' them to see how they react. If they don't settle immediately, they're bad. Pop the caps off the tops of the strut bearings and give tham a look. If they look tired, dry and cracked, that could be your problem.
