Weird thump

This just started yesterday, at low speeds it feels like I was getting a flat, then in reverse I hear and feel the same.. at high speeds it don’t do it, feels like front driver? Any suggestions?

When I heard the word thump I think of run-flats but this car doesn't come equipped with it though?

Now is a good time to trust an expert tire specialist. Around here it is called "America's tires"

I’m hoping it’s something stupid like the tire, the other 3 tires less then a year old, front driver where it sounds like it coming from the tread in middle is bald, not bald where steel is showing, nowhere near there, not like I can adjust the camber or toe…. Do you know what parts I need to buy so this don’t happen in the future?

I wonder if there is a nail in the tire or a pebble lodged somewhere. It can be as simple as that.
