Bent rims unless it is a metal on metal thump. Could this be engine mounts, ball joints, upper and lower control arm bushings, pitman arms, broken/unballanced flywheel/clutch, warped or unbalanced rotors, spindle defect, out of alignment, tranny? Loose spindle/axle nut can do it too, as well as rack that is worn and slipping in and out. I really hope it is not the tranny. Jack up and jackstand car's front end with hood open, and run the engine in 1'st through 5'th gear. Have someone else look and listen.
My brother-in-law had perhaps a similar prob when he tried to balance tires from inside only, rather than outside or middle with glue on weights. He was trying to protect the outer rim surface. Once this was corrected with central glue ons, he was OK. I just through on inner and outers on mine, as I have seen glue-ons fall off at speed. Might it also be locking wheel nuts? Some are of such weight as to throw things out of whack.
I feel for you Poor! When you ultimately find out, could you let us know?
