Yeah tried that and there was no discernible sound. If it makes a difference the rear shock appears to be stuffed the wheel grinds the tyre in corners with somebody heavy over the wheel but I have been in lots of small cars with that and no knocking sound.

It's almost like I have a square wheel but I checked and the wheel isn't square...

It comes once per revolution it appears barely perceptivle at low speeds and building to an anooying vibration at high speeds
