Default Loud rumble noise 2004 enthusiast edition

Ok so I have one more problem with my Z not sure what it could be but it usually happens when I hit 70mph I start hearing this rumble/roaring noise and if driving at 65mph you really don't hear it but as soon as you enter 70mph u hear the roaring noise start until you stop going 70 it's kinda getting me mad cause of the loud noise I know it's not normal cause it shouldn't be making such a noise like that that...the sound only comes out passing 70 anything after 70 the roaring noise appears anything lower than 70 sounds like normal what could be the problem ??? Please help driving in the freeway has been a big ***** so far with the loud roar

Thinkin its tire related.
Is the noise from the front or back?
Guessing again,I'd look at your rear tires.
Camber wear on the inside area.Especially on the right.

I had that sort of sound when my tires were basically bald on the rear. I noticed it on the highway around 60 mph and over.

Feathering or bearings. Check your tread, then jack up and check for wobble.

Could be a wheel bearing, that is very common really.SShould be noticeable at any speed normally.

Did you check the tread for feathering? I told you to check for bearing wobble. Did you even bother?

I checked for feathering no sign of that....and I can't jack it up to check for wobble because I don't have the jacks that could go under the car .. Is there another way to check?

So why are you even here asking for help? Take it to a shop.
