Why Are My Tires Making Noise?

Check the tire pressure. Is the pressure in the tire low?

Is the tire flat or torn?

Does your car have low-fitted tires?

Are the tires fitted on your car wider than normal/narrow tires?

Is there any abnormal tire wear present on any tire?

Have the tires been tightened to the car?

Check the wheel bearing. Is it damaged or worn out?

Check the rim. Is it damaged or not fixed properly?

Take the tire out and check the inner tube for any debris. Is there a stone or another object present inside the tire?

The low pressure may be the cause for the sound, as the tires are dragging on the road.

A flat tire will always produce noise as it is being dragged on the road the rim is touching the gravel.

Low profile tires generally generate more noise because there is less rubber on the sides to absorb it.

Wide tires generate more noise due to more rubber being in contact with the road.

The wear may be the cause of the noise and it may have been caused due to excessive use or a suspension or alignment problem.

This may be the cause for the noise. It’s always advisable not to over-tighten your car tires.

If the bearing is damaged, it produces a soft purring sound or grinding noise whenever you change ways. It is better to get it fixed immediately to reduce the risk of an accident.

A damaged rim may be the cause for the noise as it may be touching the tire from somewhere it normally should not.

The object may have gotten inside due to a freak accident or while fixing the tire. Get it fixed again by contacting a mechanic.

The noise may be due to the front guard touching the tire or something else. It is best to get it checked.
