Hey guys,
I'm having a bit of a problem with road noise, i think its comming off my tires... ill try to describe it as best as possible and if someone could help me find out what it is that would be great. Basically, this started a little bit after i took my winter rims/tires off, i was getting this humming noise from i believe to be my back tires but it could be the fronts too... its more noticeable over 100km/h but its still there at low speeds... its not ordinary road noise cause its annoying humming noise, but when i turn to the left it goes away, and when i turn to the right its slightly worse. I thought it might be something rubbing, but i havent been able to find anything yet. I was wondering if anyone could know what this was before i take it to the shop to check it out.. Its extremly annoying, cause the humm is so high pitched you can hear it over and aftermarket stereo set even when its cranked... Really weird. Also ive had an alignment done since the winter tires, so i dont beleive its that. It could be the tires cause when i got 2 new front tires.. the tires they switched from front to back were apparently worn away on the outside edge due to the alighnment being slightly off. Well i think thats all for now... Thanks for reading my ramble. Any help would be appreciated and if you need more info let me know.. Thanks guys.
