my left rear wheel. I have the 20 sve gt 350 style wheels on and I know they're a tight fit. I wasn't driving hard that day, nor going over any bumps. It could be in my head, but I thought I could feel every bump more, as if something happened to my suspension.

Air pressure and tire/wheel look fine. Could I have broken spring or shock or something? I couldnt' see anything wrong back there, but don't have the best view or knowledge. Maybe it was nothing? Wasn't the music.

Any suspension mods on the car? Did the bang happen while stopping or when already stopped?

I was already stopped, no change to suspension aside from the wheels that everyone has.

edit: it's only over bumpy roads. but the tiniest bump is causing a lot of shock/movement. i've had these wheels on for like 4-6 weeks now and no issue until yesterday.

Hi all, I've also noticed when i'm going about 20km/h on a smooth road, there's a rhythmic bump every 0.5 seconds I feel when that seems to jostle the car. It sort of goes away if I'm going faster.

Yeah I'm going to a ford dealer. Would warranty cover most of the stuff. Do I need alignment?
