Your wheel bearings are probably going bad....

need more info dude.

Does it do this at high speed, low speed?
What kind of sound?
Does it do this when braking?
If you put both hands on either side of the wheel, can you wobble it any? What's the condition of your lugs? Try torquing them down to 85 ft/lbs.


Don't drive until you give us some more info. A wheel coming off isn't pretty.

Check the wear pattern on your tire. My drivers side rear wore funny. I took it to the tire shop and they said it wwas an inferior tire. Hey we've never heard of bad tires before have we? Can you say FIRESTONE! I run BFG's but even the best have flaws.

Thaks for the info and i will do that.Let me ask you this,my so call "best friend" says it would be a ''bitch'' to put turbo on my 95 gs.Is it that much of a diff in my 95 Gs and his 97 rs other than the weight of the car?

It could be tire hum. My Scorchers on the back used to hum due to uneven tread wear cause of being lowered. I got new tires and havent had that probalem anymore, btw, I rotated them to the front and the hummed upfront as well but not quite as loud. Also it could be a worn out wheel bearing like these guys already said... goto autozone.com, and go to repair info and look up some suspension stuff, they will tell you how to inspect and know whats going on better than i can...

On the contrary, it is more of a bitch to put a turbo kit on a 1997+ eclipse. The reason for this is because the 95-96 cars have the regulator located on the fuel rail and already have a return line going to the tank where the 97+ has the regulator near the tank and you have to run a new hard line from the engine bay back to the tank for the return line from the regulator. Also, the 95 car's computer wont cut fuel under boost like the others will. Thats why we don't need a fuel cut defenser/VC1/VC2/Missing link and they do. The only reason that I could see that you would have a more difficult time is if you have ABS. I have heard that cars with ABS cant fit the stage 2 piping from HRC unless they use a front mount ic.
