heres another thought, prehaps try the spare tyre and see if the noise remains? that would eliminate or solve the rim possibility.

when he balanced up ur rims did he tell u if u put a slight buckle in ur rim at all? could b that but might only b slightly buckled but enough 2 make the noise so try wat danielsan said as 4 the rotors bein bent wen under braking ud b able 2 feel the car shake slightly and if u grab ur shifter that will vibrate under braking 2 usually indicates warps or bent rotors

Im a little confused when u balance a wheel does that mean they fix the rim if its buckled? Also last night I noticed it does pull slightly left even on a flat road - so hopefully its just a wheel alinment?

The other night I was driving and hit a curb while sending an sms simutaneously.. It smacked the front left so I changed it and it was hard getting off. The next day I got the tyre repaired and all 5 balanced. But since its happened Ive had this droning noise coming from the tyre - the tyre specialist checked it all out and told me its seems all good. Can someone give me advise on what I can do or what it can be?

Thanks

One way to fix it would be to concentrate on driving instead of being an idiot sending an sms _WHAT IF_ that kurb happened to be a pedestrian?

For ****s sake people think about what you are doing when driving.

as if no 1 has eva dun it b4 **** happens ppl get ova it.......... but on the actual subject here wen ur tyre gets balanced they spin the tyre up 1st they check if the rims buckled then they check if the tyres sitting on the rim properly then wen the tyres stops they turn it 2 a certain point and hit on or stick on some lil weights so wen the tyre spins round there is even weight all round the tyre wen it spins.
