thumping from tires
Ok here we go. Im getting thumping from my front tires. The balljoints and cv axles were bad. I replaced them. Still getting the thumping sound. The tires are 6 months old. Im ar a loss right now. I have no clue what it.could be. Any input would be awesome. Thanks tim.

Need more info, whats the vehicle. and the thumping...loud, can you feel or hear it, does it get worse with speed or better. A good check would be to jack up the front, when looking at the wheel grab at the 3:00 and 9:00 position and try to turn the wheel as if making a corner, so pull out at the 3:00 and push as the 9:00 then the other way. does it have any play?

Its 2002 blazer ls 4x4 4 door. I can hear it no shake or anything. Gets worse as i speed up. Thats why im guessing the tire. Like the rotation. Im about to jack it up and ill let you know. Iv had a hub go out on me before doesnt really seem like it

Could be cupping of the tires.... Mine unfortunately did that before I lowered it because my shocks were worn out. The inside of the tire will have high and low spots on it if you rub your hand around it. Nothing you can do except let the tires wear or get new ones. Lets us know what ya find out! 😁
