This just started yesterday. Coming from drivers side front tire.

Here is a link to listen:


Listen behind the wind and normal car noise, its the noise that sounds like walking in soaking wet boots.

It only happens when I'm turning LEFT, even just moving the wheel slightly left will make the noise. No noise when going straight or turning right.

I took wheel off and put back on and made sure everything is tight.
There is no rubbing what-so-ever. Wheels are 2018 JL Rubicon Takeoffs. My vehicle is a 2018 JL Sport S.

I can’t tell what it is from the audio clip. Is the Jeep rolling while you are turning it? The bfg ko2 tires make a little noise at slow speeds. You may just hear it more from the driver side due to your position.

Jeep must be rolling for noise to happen.

If I'm still and just turn wheel left and right I get no noise.

Again, no noise when turning right or going straight. Only when I'm turning left.

It was some thin plate near the brake assembly that was rubbing. They just bent it back a little bit and it stopped.
