Help me identify a noise from my rear tire...

OK, I was at the storage place unloading some junk into it, and a heavy item was taken from my Jeep Cherokee, and the whole Jeep rocked side to side.

When it did, I heard a noise coming from my rear passenger tire. So I rocked the Jeep by hand again, and heard it again, and then I went down to the tire, and shook it side to side and heard the same noise, but have no clue what it is.

I checked all the lug nuts to make sure they are tight, because the sound, sounded like a tire that has a loose lug nuts.

I haven't taken it apart yet, I am doing that in the morning, but thought I would ask your opinion as to what it might be, then when I look at it in the morning I will kinda know what I am looking for. :)


Thanks for any help!
