Guys I'm really sick of the clicking sound my wheels make when the make a revolution. Is there any TSB's on this noise? Has anyone found a cure for this problem?

Most of the time its due to rocks being stuck in your tread, clicking when they hit the pavement. Not much you can do about it, other than pick them out.

I've noticed my non-Chrome Tech wheels doing this. Doesn't really bother me though.

Mine do that too. I think the sound is coming from the plastic cap.

If you have the new gen. chrometech make sure the little cap that goes over the center of the wheel is screwed on properly over the lug nuts.

Cap over the center of the wheel? The only cap is the one in the middle that has the pontiac logo on it. My techs are 2001, I'm not sure what generation chrome techs I have.

The first gen. chrometechs (regular 5 spoke) don't have that cap over the center of the wheel. The second gen. chrometechs (torqued 5 spoke) do.

I put my car in reverse and drove...I couldn't hear the noise I've been hearing. Does anyone know what this could be? My pads are not down to the wear markers.
