Odd Engine Noise

Car is a 99 Carmy - 2.2L.

Been running great for years but its suddenly started making an odd noise at around 2300 RPM. It sounds like a tinny rattle in the engine that only comes on during 2300 RPM ish above and below it is normal.
Cars a manual if that makes any difference.

Any ideas what ...

Had the same prob just a few weeks back , i got a wheel balancing done . it sort of fixed the problem but it ended up i had to replace the front tires as they had woren up evenly and then got an aligment. So any of thoes 3 could be the cause.

Best car of the show was deff maz's Supra and the chopped evo 3 , both looking damn good. Also agree the $16 was a rip , it was less than that last year and had almost twice the area to look around.

Wheel Alignment

Hi

My steering wheel in the Camry (99) has been shaking pretty bad recently ,
Just checking if all thats needed is for an alignment ?
I dont want to go wasting $70 on one if its not casuing the problem.
Iv tryed pumping up the tyres and that wasnt the cause.

Thanks in advance
