Hey guys. Im getting a wobble type noise on the right front wheel of my car. I jacked up the wheel and spun the tire. I could hear a metallic sounding noise every time the wheel spun around. So I looked closer and it looked like a brake pad was hitting the rotor only at certain times. So, I thought it was a warped rotor. I bought new rotors and pads for both front wheels. I just changed em out and Im still getting the noise.

I just noticed also, when I was spinning the tire in the air to check for the noise, the tire would rub on the ground every once in a while, like the wheel was bent or somthing, but I still heard the metallic grinding noise with it.

I can hear the noise at all speeds, and it gets more frequent the higher the speed. I CANT feel the vibration/wobble through the steering wheel, or the seat. The car tracks strait, and there are NO sensations in my a$$ or on my hands. I can feel it a little bit on both the pedals though.

Any ideas? Shoot your best guess at me
Thanks a lot guys.

If you mark the wheel does it happen each time the wheel is in a specific spot?

I am kinda thinking bearings that's why I asked. A wiped bearing will not happen at the same point in the rotation each time (unlike a bent wheel or rotor).

You know, im not 100% sure, but I will have a look later.

I just got back from a nice sunday drive....about 60 miles or so. Mostly highway, with a few stop lights. I had my radio on and the windows down and I couldn't even tell it was there. But when I turned the radio off and rolled up the windows, I could still hear it.

My tire looks fine, and the brakes are doing good. I don't think it could be too big of a problem. I had it past 100 and it felt fine, no feelings in the steering wheel or seat.

Im not going to worry too much about it.
Thanks for the help
