problem! sounds like i got a flat, but i dont
Yesterday I noticed an issue wit my car, whenever its rolling, it sounds like I have 2 flat front tires.
Whenever I accelerate, it seems as if the sound disappears but whenever the car is rolling, the noise gets louder and more rapid as the speed of the car is increased.
Also while decelerating, the sound becomes noticable around 5-10mph.
What in the world is going on here?

I have a similar symptom on my 96 se. What kind of tires do you have? I am suspect of my dunlop sp sport a2's. I am also suspecting a front wheel bearing. It's not a very loud noise, only audible at parking lot speeds (just like original poster said).
I'm going to get mine checked out soon... i need new tires anyway.

maybe it is my tires, cuz i do definitely need new ones.
wen i take turns at 5mph, they squeel, its pretty bad.
And this noise is audible at however speed i drive it, its getting ridiculously annoying

Sounds like 2 issues to me. If you squeal taking turns at 5mph your tires are either sh*t or completely bald and it's time for new ones. The vibration sounds more like a balancing issue. May want to check your wheels and make sure no weights have fallen off

the vibration isnt tremendous, its barely noticable. the noise on the otherhand can be heard from a distance, the best way i can describe the sound is that it's similiar to driving with 2 flat tires.
