Strange sound after SDR w/Azenis install
I just put my SDR's with Azenis sports on and now I get this strange sound. It started on the freeway at 70mph and now I'm starting to hear it on the street at 35mph. It's a shhh sound every 10 or 15sec., I can't find any sign of rubbing. Kind of sounds like driving down the freeway and getting hit by a big gust of wind. I thought it might be the center caps vibrating but they seem tight. I put STI suspension on the car 3 weeks ago and have not had an alignment yet, I was waiting for my rims and I might get some lower springs.
Could I have damaged my wheel bearings by driving the car around for three weeks without an alignment?

Could you describe the sound further. Is is a metallic sound?
It could just be the tires, Azenis are noisier than most tires due to the thread pattern |

It sounds like I'm driving over patches of wet pavment.

I recently had a sound issue coming from my wheels. I later learned my lug nuts weren't tight enough. one actually flew off.
