Default Vehicle Problems.

Okay Gents(and ladies that know Cars) I have a 2002 Mazda MPV, that was bought new in 04ish. It hasn't had any major problems besides a fan motor dying out in 08.


Today the driver side tire area started making an odd noise. The noise sounds kinda like if there was a pebble or rock on the tire, which is a thunk thunk thunk sound. The pitch changes depending on the vehicles speed.
The noises only seems to appear when the car is coasting, if I apply the brakes or the gas the sound goes away.The noise also isn't there if the vehicle is going under 10 miles per hour. When its happening the floor vibrates.

The tires are fairly new 5+ months or so, rotated about late December, there doesn't appear to be anything visibly wrong with them such as balding. They also have the correct PSI.

As a side note, the Vehicle is front wheel drive.

I would take it to mechanic but currently do not have the funds to have someone charge me just to figure out what's wrong.

So any help would be highly appreciated.
