Noise in WH-7850-C24-CL rear wheel rim

Hi,

I bought a set of WH-7850-C24-CL wheels a couple weeks ago and today I noticed some pretty loud rattling noise in the back wheel. I took the wheel off and the noise seems to come from the rim of the wheel, as if a piece of metal or a rock was stuck in it. What is really weird is that it happens only when there is a tire on the wheel and when the tube is fully inflated. When I deflate the tube, the noise stop. I checked the spokes and they dont seem loose.

Does anyone ever had a similar problem? What can cause this? Should I stop using this wheel and if not, is there a way to fix this? It's really annoying.

Thanks

You have the valve stem nut on?

Yes, the noise is not coming from where the valve is. It's coming from the opposite end of the rim, where the seam is.
