wheel or tyre noisy??

[intel2800]

hei guys..

i'm currently using an 195/55 R15 tyres, and right now i have some problem on it because there's a loud noise came from the tyre on the driver side whenever i run the car on 40km/h until 80km/h. i've already change the wheel bearing and done alignment on it also, and its still noisy.. and for your info, the absorber also 'mati' already at the driver side.. could someone advice me on it, bcoz i already ran of ideas on it now..:hmmmm:

Need to be sure where the 'sound' coming from - from your description could be anything...tire, absober, mountin, camber. etcetc

most probably the sound comes from the tyre itself..

i'm currently using BFGoodrich tyre(Front Left) and Runway(Front Right).. the thickness of the tyre are about 30-40%.. the rear tires are new ones, both are Dunlop Formula D, just bought it early last month.. for you info, whenever i hitting a bump or pothole on the road and also during cornering, the front right side tyre always hitting the fender plastic cover.. the front wheel bearing, cv joints, and ball joint are change to a new ones.. and another additional info on it, my car is very lower on the right driver side than the left passenger side even there's no load on it..

Your front left and front right tires are from different brands. This could be the noise source as different tires have different thread pattern and different compound, which create different kind of noise/noise level.

but the other day i went for alignment, they told me that i should change the absober.. if i done the alignment at that time, the tires still noisy on the road.. thats what i've been told to.. should i need to change absober also?:hmmmm:

hmm, you said your absorber already 'mati' right? I would change it if I were you. Absorber is an important component of the suspension and we better not to compromise on safety. After changing the absorber see whether still got noise or not..
