tire problem - 5/8/2008 3:22:38 PM    Wile C Posts: 83 Joined: 2/7/2006 Status: offline Just got a set of new tires on my R/T the last friday and yesterday and today I keep hearing a sound from the back wheel area almost like if something was sliding around loose in the cargo area.  I checked it out and there is nothing back there or anything loose in the area where the spare and battery are housed.  Any ideas before i have to take time off to deal with this?  Like i said, it only happens when I turn into my driveway making a right. i spent 4 hours at the tire place last week, i really don't want to have to go back.  I had them put on the stock tire size 225 60r 18 thanks for any ideas that might keep me out of Merchant's Post #: 1

Double check the wing nut is holding everything down tight. Other than that ...I have no clue. (in reply to Wile C) Post #: 2

Status: offline Wile C, How many miles you have on it?  I had a noise coming from the back end like something hit the back every time I took off, it ended up being a bad piece of rubber in the Drive-Line.  I tore it up pretty good.  It happened to me at about 65,000 miles or so... _____________________________ Jimmy The Fuse Mineral Gray '05 Magnum R/T Hemi (in reply to Wile C) Post #: 3
