Cannot reproduce for tire guys, so just get the old shrug and blank stare. The timing of it has me wondering if anything was damaged when the tires were mounted?
I have a snip of video that catches the sound, but unable to attach here since it’s not in the right format.
Any ideas? I like to have as much info as possible before seeing a mechanic, since being a girl historically puts me at a disadvantage.
I have a 2017 86, with 52K miles. Tires installed are the correct size.

It could be one of a few things. A damaged CV joint, bad alignment and balancing, debris stuck somewhere on the wheels or tires, or loose hubcaps.
