Hello and welcome. Sounds like you are descibing a noise between the wheel cover and the wheel. There is actually a service bulletin for this concern. There is a procedure to install 3M insulator tape on the inside of the wheel cover to prevent contactin noise, either a squeak or click. On the indside of each cover, install a piece of this tape on either side of the spoke area on the outer edge of the cover. while the covers are off, also lok for a stone caught between the cover and the wheel while you have them off.
Yes, it could. Unless you have a nail in the tire. Here is a pic of the placement of the strips of 3M anti squeak tape (3M part number 06356). The pic is of the inside of the cover.
