While running at over 120 KPH I've heard a wounding sound on my KIA sportage, did already the alignment and wheel balancing but still the same its annoying... Please advise...

thanks...

Get to the good tire shop and ask them to feel all 4 tire base with bare hand thoroughly to find some bump, I am more than sure if alignment and balancing is fine then this noise (especially thumping noise) comes due to swollen tire. This is very known storage defects and can be considered under manufacturing defects if you have receipt of tires from where you purchase them, they should be replacing this free of cost.
