Hoping to get some input on a mystery rattle I’m experiencing. A few days ago, I accidentally ran over a brick, which damaged my passenger-side wheel. I took it to Discount Tire, and they ordered a replacement from BMW, plus I had all four tires changed since three of them were due anyway.

I'm noticing a strange rattle coming from the passenger side, where the new wheel is. It sounds like something is loose or hanging, but I can’t see anything unusual. The folks at Discount Tire inspected it, and everything seems solid with the wheel itself. The car drives perfectly, with no change in handling. The performance is practically the same. I'm planning to visit the dealership tomorrow to have it checked out.
 
Hmmm it sounds like a tricky situation. It’s good that Discount Tire checked the wheel, but visiting the dealership should help you get to the bottom of that rattle.

Have you noticed if the frequency of the rattle increases with the speed?
