Hey [hope this havent been asked before]
well i took my car out today & it was pouring rain. i notice that my tire were screeching when i slight turn [them curve & all]..it makes a pretty loud screech too..i didnt go that fast..probably between 35-40mph..so not fast at all. is it because i need to change tire or is the tire just need some air?
i got my car checked & all not too long ago..about 4 months ago & the tire been aligned so yeah...

Which tire is it coming from, and what car do you drive?

Is it still doing it? Are the wheels aftermarket?

next time you drive, let go of the steering wheel briefly. if it travels straight, you're good, if it travels right, you need to have your right rear brake checked. More likely than not, your caliper is sticking.

if it travels straight, get back to us.

Get an alignment. Had the same problem when I had coilovers installed. I had sticky tires and they were screeching at turns that weren't even remotely fast.


Check the tread of the tire and compare it with the opposite side. If it's worn out more than the other, u need an alignment

a somewhat flat tire isn't going to make screeching noises...
