Hey, so I bought some rims and put them on my car, original size was 16, now have 18's and I've had them on the car for a few days an they have been great, no noise/or anything, Then I just went for a drive an kept hearing a womping noise/sounded like a rock was in the tire, got out an checked an their isn't any rocks in the tires?
I hear it when I'm turning an going over 20.
the slower I go the less womping noise the faster I go faster the noise.
(its not hitting anything).
Maybe I'll need a wheel alignment/or New bearings?
I doubt their is a flat spot because I would of been hearing it all the other times I've been driving.
