Question type: Maintenance & Repair
my tire had a slow leak, i took it to walmart to be repaired. it was fine when i took it there. after the tire was repaired i drove down the parking lot and heard a loud thumping noise that was not there when i took it in. walmart says they don't know what it is. anyone have any ideas?
Now you must seek a real car technician. demonstrate the issue, have them inspect and find the cause. i do not recommend driving far like that. Get out and look at the area where the sound eminates from. If it were on the steering axle you could turn, advance forward a few inches and repeat till you inspected the tire all the way around, then do the other side. Check the pressures in the others. It could be a mudflap ? a foreign object ? a failed tire casing ? loose parts ?
It could be the wheel cover has brake dust trapped between the covers centering attachment parts even. If your covers pull off, drive without it and with it to isolate.

I have also changed out the stock rims on it, however, didn't have any problems with those rims prior to having the tires put on last week. Not sure how to proceed from here.
