Hey guys, today i hit a pretty big pothole (luckily tyre didn't pop or rim crack) but there seems to be a squeek coming from the corner that hit..seems to go with the car (as i go faster the squeek gets faster)

any ideas what could be causing this noise?

turns out the inside of the rim has a massive dint in it (buckled) and lets air go when no pressure is on it only (can jacked up)

council better pay for repairs and new tyre. Only 3 weeks old
