HI EVERYONE,
I have a 2002 Trailblazer/LT and I've noticed that there is a grinding/rubbing noise in my driver's side wheel. I thought that they might need to be balanced, so I took them in to be balanced. The weight/lead had come off the rim, so I thought that was the problem also. This was replaced, wheels were balanced and rotated and I still hear/feel this annoying noise!!!! At first, I could feel vibrations/movement through my steering wheel, but this has since stopped. This is very annoying and Im just afraid that my tire is gonna fly off at any given moment. I was told by someone that it could be the bearings or CV joints(whatever those are). Can someone please help me to figure out what this is??? Thank you very much.. :smile:

More than likely a bad wheel/hub bearing, just did one in my shop, same symptoms. 225.00 part, 1.7 hours labor.
