Speed related sound from wheels/tires
Hi,
I noticed this "hum" or "lub" kind of sound. Low frequency, that is only really noticeable right around 40 mph. Seems to be coming from the front wheels/tires, specifically the right ones.
Any ideas? I thought it was my tires since I accidentally put the SP 8000s on opposite sides (directional tires). I reversed them but the sound is still present.
Wheel bearing? Bad tire? I bought 1 new SP 8000 and use it in front along with the spare wheel. I put my worn wheel/tire in trunk as spare...
Any thoughts or input is appreciated.
