Is this small noise normal when kicking the tire

[aro]

As the title says, If I kick the tire at the 12 o'clock position, there is a slight clunking noise coming from behind the wheel. Both sides do that. Is it normal?

I kick it pretty hard, more like a kick and a push (Muay Thai guys know the teep kick lol)

I went off road the first time with my new lift and I'm wondering if the noise is related to that, or normal. While driving on washboard roads I could also hear some clunking, but the roads were pretty rough and the noise could have been normal...

With my old JK, the day after I lifted it I went off road and it started making some very noticeable clunking noise while driving (louder than my JL). I went to the shop the next day and they tightened something that came loose. Don't remember what it was.

Well take it back to the shop that installed it for a 500 mile re torque, or if you did it yourself check yourself? Probably nothing but maybe loose sway bar link or shock bolt, hard to say without phyisically checking

Maybe you are kicking the TPMS?

Are your abilities along the lines of Tong Po?

I talked to the shop and they want me to go for retorqueing after 1000 miles., which is far away. I guess I'll get under the Jeep and just do it myself.

They did the work on my JK and I had issues the following day when I went off road. After they retightened everything I didn't have any problems again. I'll have to do it myself.
