I decided to change my winter wheels for my summer wheels today. I took it to my "trusty" dealer and 1.5 hours later I was back on the road. I had'nt gone more than 2km when a van behind me was honking at me and flashing his lights. When I stopped he told me my rear right wheel looked like it was about to fall off. I cautiously returned to the dealer and told them of this. They took it back in and 20 minutes later returned to say it was fine and the lug nuts were all torqued to spec. So I drove home. I asked my wife to drive around a parking lot while I watched to make sure it was ok. Sure enough I could see a slight wobble and a once per revolution scraping noise. My wife had an appointment, and phoned me a little later to say someone stopped her to say the wheel looked like it was about to fall off. After her appointment she drove it home carefully. I am going back to the dealer tomorrow for a thourough examination of that wheel. Would anyone know what this could be?
