Car "bunps" in driver front while driving straight. Feels like a flat tire. Tire is inflated to 32psi. Vehicle has aftermarket suspension components installed and aftermarket brakes/rotors. CV axles seem to be in tact and doesn't "click" when turning either way. All symptoms say wheel bearing/hub. Just wanted a few ideas.

I believe this model uses a pressed in bearing.

Raise vehicle, put on stands. Grasp tire and pull/push bothe horizontally and vertically looking for any movement. If movement, try to determine if it is ball joint, tie rod, control arm bushing, if not then probably a wheel bearing.

I would remove the knuckle take it to a shop, and have them press in new bearings.
Also inspect the knuckle bearing area for wear/cracking.
