I've got a 1998 Lumina with 168K miles. The problem is my 17 year old son cut the corner too sharp and damaged the right rear rim on the curb. Had to replace the rim. Tire was mounted and balanced on another rim. However now there's a constant thump whenever I accelerate above 15 mph. At speed it almost sounds as if there's a helicopter hovering over the right rear of the car. The noise was not there prior to breaking the rim. I'm thinking the wheel bearings may be damaged, but I open for suggestions. Anyone have any ideas on what the problem might be? |

I have a 95 lumina w/170K. I would probably put on the doughnut spare and go for a test drive. If the problem persists, you know for sure its not related to the tire/rim.

Well, It sounds suspension/drive related for sure. Sorry, wish I could help.
