Over a period of time I have noticed a feeling in seat like car is going over rumble strip , you feel it in bum not in steering wheel . Newish tyres so not that , Buckled rim ? Balance? Suspension? Noticeable a low speeds . Car tracks straight. Its a 2018 GT line. Need car so don't want to be going to garage at minute . Any advice please . Car has 24k on clock .checked pressures all ok . Bulge in side of tyre . Lots of ideas but no solid ones .

Thank you . Eugene.

Well if you say you have a bulge in side of a front tyre that will certainly cause the symptoms you describe!!

Took car to Grand Prix Tyres . Removed all 4 and checked balance. On closer inspection the passengers side rear tyre has a strange wear pattern to the inside. Car will need new boots for first MOT so ordered 2 rears and set of front pads . Only hope this fixes the problem. Thank you all so much.
