Noise From Rear Left Tyre

[scarvo]

hey guys hopefully someone can give me advice!

i've been hearing a noise coming from the rear left tyre of my car lately.. sounds like excess air or something, it kicks in bad when i get around 60-80k's

i've heard from a couple people it could be bad wheel balance, could be an egg in the tyre or a busted wheel bearing... just wondering if anyones had this problem before and could shed some light on what im looking at and roughly how much it would set me back to fix!

super dissappointed atm about it haha

Could also be scalloping of the tread, have you had taken a look at it yourself yet?

Jack it up and have a good look, even wobble the wheel to check the wheel bearing. Put it on axle stands and get someone to "drive" it while you listen out for noises back there

chris at tyres and more in mirrabooka had a look at it today and it is a wheel bearing ): getting it fixed tomorrow before the worst happens!!
