changed my toplinks recently and have been driving car very light since so i know it isnt these.
its more of a light thudder rather than a knock if that makes sence .
im thinking anti roll bar bushes ?? it doesnt sound like its coming from a corner its more of a center thudder .
any ideas ?
cheers gaz

Well there's your problem. Ditch the flintstone wheels and get some with rubber and air...
