i get this sound when im driving slow like at 5 mph or less on my street. its a sound that sounds like something is sticking to the tire because i hear it faster when i drive a little faster, i already checked my tires and there isnt anything sticking on them. i dont think its anything serious but what else could be causing a sound that goes faster as i drive faster. once i drive like past 10 or 15 mph i dont hear it anymore.

check your tires again, sound like there is a rock stuck in the tread.

yea i got the tires mounted recently, i only see glue residue around the area where the rim lip and the tire meet

ill try checking for rocks too


the person that mentioned the drive shaft:
should i get the car on a lift and have someone gas it slowly while i look at the drive shaft?

Check your ebrake cables near your driveshaft. The brackets may have broken off and are hitting it.
