#18: Re: Whistle after swapping alloys to vortex Author: sicskate, Location: Margate, KentPosted: Sun Feb 13, 2011 6:45 am ---- Tyres are very good 6mm all over.
It gets louder as the car slows. But breaking doesn't effect it.
I'm wondering if it could be a driveshaft, but all boots are sealed.
Spinning the wheel whilst on the ramp doesn't make any noise.
