Vibration noise
 
I have an 04 MCS with aftermarket wheels and non-runflat tires. Recently I've been getting more and more vibration noise from the driver side rear corner. I had the wheels checked and the are balanced. I just can't seem to figure it out. The vibration is worse when going 40 to 50mph. Anyone have any thoughts as the the cause or cure?

Thanks,

Tim

I'd inspect the inner parts of the tire ... Mini's are hard on the inner parts due to camber

Noise resolved. All this started when I slammed into a huge pot hole or broken asphalt that hit all 4 corners. The damange was two dented rims on the right side, two damaged front control arm bushings and rear hub barings that were destroyed. Now that has all been fixed all I can hear is the gentle hum of my exhaust. All that noise was making my car a lot less fun. Now that it is fixed I'm a happy camper again.
