I have a thumping coming from the passenger side front wheel. I have ruled out bent rim, unbalanced tire, warped rotor. It started after new tires were put on, but not immediately after, so I don't think it's directly related to that. Tires have been rotated and re-balanced to eliminate defective tire or bent rim as the cause. Rotors and brake pads were replaced - needlessly. The thumping is definitely related to the rotation of wheel itself because the speed of the thumping corresponds directly to the car speed. The thumping causes the steering wheel to vibrate, but only slightly, and the car seems to be properly aligned because it holds direction when hands are taken off the steering wheel. Final piece is that thumping sound is increasing in volume - so whatever it is, it's getting worse. Any ideas?
