tick - tick - tick from Driver's rear wheel

[ebsalem]

HI gang sound only happens when the car is full of 4 adults. No obvious visible damage, no wiggle in the wheel like a bad bearing.

Any thoughts?

Sounds like your describing a nail or somthing in the tread. Have you looked to see if you have anythibg in the tire?

sounds like a nail or something stuck in the tire. try driving near an island median with the window down. if you still hear the ticking sound, that's probably what it is. mine did that for about a month. couldn't find anything in the tire. but as it turns out, there was a nail in it. tech found it during an oil change.
