Accura Legend intermittent bumpty bump front wheels Sign In

This 02 Legend has four new very low profile tires (3 months ), a fresh alignment and re-balance and rotation of the tires, and intermittently it seems as if it has had a can of
FIX-A-FLAT put in one of the tires. That has not been done, but the tires were rotated and re-balanced anyway. Still acts as if it's got a tire separation or out of round, but it's intermittent from a few MPH to highway speeds.

I know some front wheel drive vehicles have a damper on one of the CVs, but this car does not.

Any clues?

Fix a flat is cool but only if to save your life. That tire needs to be inspected, cleaned out of that crap or replaced with new. Wear ear muffs for when the tire shop finds "fix-a-flat" in there. No way I know of to balance a tire with that in it. What was wrong with the spare tire? If that was flat also consider a horse,
