    Tyre noise problems

    hey all,

    just switched my rears tyres to the front and vice versa.
    all was good before but i noticed theres a "rubbing and rattling" sound if i exactly go over 80km or slow down after the switch

    all tyres/wheels are the same size.

    would anyone know what this could be?

    Wheel alignment/ balancing?

    ^as above

    Did you tighten the nuts properly, were there hub rings?

    Could also be that the tire is now wearing in a different place to were it was in the other position. this should go in time.
    Due to differ camber from front to back!

    wheel alignment/balance shouldnt make rubbing/rattling noise.. check wheel nuts. but even loose wheel nuts dont typically rattle.. did you do anything else to the car at the same time?

    Even directional tyres on the wrong way round shouldnt 'rattle'...

    to say rattle may be an over-statement hahaha

    its more of a inner camber wear feeling which vibrates the footrest dramatically >80km

    whilst changing the tyres i did flush my oil, spark plugs and filter. doubt its related to that because the car runs fine or am i wrong

    righto in that case get your wheels balanced. and yea none of that other stuff would be to blame. i was more so thinking along the lines of changed a tie rod end/ball joint, things that could have put your wheel alignment out.

    (and if your tyres are directional make sure their on the right sides.)

    did you just change the front left wheel to rear right and vice verse without taking the tyres off???

    if the tyres are directional, the tyres are not rotate in the right direction.
    connorling, your profile and evidenced by your post tells me alot about what type of feral you are..... all class 'hay'!!!! ps. not your m8....
