Tire/wheel question

I noticed this tonight... usually if i kick a tire on my car it stays in place, doesnt budge or anything. But just walking by i happened to kick the rear left tire, and the whole thing like... rolled back and forth a little (maybe about an inch of tire-ground contact space, give or take a little) and was squeaking. None of the others do it, just that one. No clue what it could be, any ideas? its a stock non-posi rear end if that helps any.

I just went and checked it again. My mind exaggerated lol. Well when i kick it it doesnt roll at all, but it does move left and right. It also squeaks. Since it didnt roll and it moved sideways i was thinking it migh be loose at the axle or something, but getting in and out of my car there was a low pitched squeak, same with when i pusehed it a little from the side, so now im thinkin suspension. Dunno, may take it by my mechanic tomorrow and see.
