Hello! I just noticed a sound similar to that when u have a flat tyre on my car. Visual inspection confirmed that the tyres are actually pressurized. I keep hearing this sound when I accelerate from the passenger's side. Please help!

more investigation is needed, probably the tyre has something stuck in it or
if its drum brakes at the end, the drum assembly has loosen or
the sound is not related to the tyre but something else

solution
A mechanic needs to drive the car and recommend what the problem is, if the mechanic now says you need to change brainbox, then look for a more qualified personnel

you most probably have a pebble stuck between the thread or a piece of metal
