4 d( e3 J7 R3 `6 xWHAT: Flat-spotted tire. As the tire rotates the flat spot thumps on the ground. Nylon-cord tires will flat-spot overnight and make this sound until they warm up. It's usually worse in colder weather. You can permanently flat-spot the tires by locking up the wheels, grinding massive amounts of rubber off the tread in one spot.5 g- a y# Y# J0 [' A9 w; t' k/ M
URGENCY: Nada.
