I was coming home from work the other night when about halfway thru my highway drive I started getting a drum roll sound from what appeared to be my right front side. Thought maybe a flat. After pulling off the next exit I found no flat but the drum roll persisted. Sounded like something tapping the wheel well.
I have a five speed and the drumming became more pronounced when I downshifted.
Yesterday thankfully it was gone so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Was not the engine as I revved a few times. That night I parked my car on a small elevated piece of ice. Could doing this cause the bearings or something to freeze and offset a little till the temp went over freezing the next day.

Or could the bearings or something be on their way out as my car is coming up to 5 years. Or maybe this is somehow connected to my 16 in winter wheels. [which i've had for 4 years now.]

Does my scenario sound familiar to anyone?

thx
