This is the second thread I have seen you call them tire rods. They are called tie rods, not tire rods.

yeah, I just put brand new tokico blues and tein h, thought I'm gonna fix the 'lose tire' sound when going thru bumps or some pot holes, but not! still right front wheel doing this irritating noise. I have changed stabilizer links on both sides, it was good for a while. After day or two could again hear same "lose tire" sound. Checked ball joints, ok; maybe tie rods or ??? who knows... my car has 87k miles '02 se

tie rods. Have a question in line with the subject, when I drive over a pothole I can feel the thump on the steering wheel, sometimes the feel is so strong that I feel in on my front teeth, what can that be?
