Strange noise
After I changed my rear tire now I have a strange noise when I'm driving along and drive about 55 give it throttle and it sounds like a metal lathe. had dealer look at it sees nothing wrong anybody had this. I have new brake pads also did not have this noise before I change tire dealer replace bearings and drive pulley still have noise. Could possibly be belt noise but I don't know

If you did it, go over your work and if necessary, take it apart and do it again. Are there wheel spacers? If so, may be they were swapped. Is the belt aligned and tension set correctly? You shouldn't be hearing any noise like that.

Yes I've done that twice and the dealership did it there was a rock that was in the pulley on the back that I dug out so the belt has a groove in it but it's not torn it should work out with heat I think

It could be the brake pads dragging on the rotor, or a pebble caught in there somewhere.
