Tire noise or wheel bearing issue?
I recently got new rotors and brake pads for my ford ranger, pep boys put them in. A few weeks after that, I got new tires, also at pep boys. I've noticed a noise coming from the drivers side wheel/tire a couple weeks after (kind of like driving on a rough road, but not bumpy). The wheel bearings go inside of the rotors in this vehicle. I'm wondering if since they were most likely moved from the old rotors to the new rotors if this is likely the problem, or if it's just tire noise?

Sounds like a soft tire
- Can I swap 15 inch tire an rim with a 16 inch tire an rim? The rims an tires are off a dodge van, they are 5 hole rims, the car I want to put them on is a ford taurus with a 16 inch tire on it.
- 1995 Ford Taurus with a steering issue. When I turn the steering wheel to a certain spot left or right it will start moving back and forth? According to previous owner the rack and pinion was previously replaced. Steering wheel Is off a little to the right. Any ideas?
- New wheel bearing and still noise? I have a 1997 2wd 2.3 liter Ford Ranger and the front passenger side wheel was making loud noise and the wheel was pulling that way and I replaced the wheel bearing and a couple days later the same side is making that noise again and and pulling that way again. It has 4 brand new tires on it and the wheels aligned.
- One shop tells me hose is kinked, another says bad wheel bearing, what is going on? Someone mentioned we should replace the wheel because it was warped, we replaced the wheel. We then had the same issue and shop mentioned we need to replace wheel bearing. We shopped around and went to another shop that said wheel bearing is fine, but the brake hose is kinked. They state that the kinked brake hose is causing the wobble sound… 2007 Ford Fusion SE
