Exclamation Can Someone Help

I recently noticed that on my 99 C230 Komp, a ticking noise coming from my driver side rear tire when ever the tire is spinning, the faster the spinning the faster the ticking, it sometimes comes and goes but now it there more often, going to get it checked out but was wondering if anyone has had this problem,

thx

Check to see if you have a nail imbedded in your rear tire.

yup...there's a nail, I thought about a nail being there but didn't think it would make that much noise, well i was wrong. I lowered the pressure in the tire, and the noise is now almost eliminated, going to get tire fixed.

thx for the help stox...
