Default wheel bearing or tire noise yes i searched

I jacked up the car and check all four wheels no play or wiggle in all four of the tires 12 to 6 or left too right. Sound doesn't change braking or turning....sounds like I have mudder tire in the passenger rear increases in sound by mph...

No wiggle all good right?

thoughts?

MB swap out spare in that spot for tire noise. Did you turn the tires when they were up to ck for binding or noise? Unusual tire wear...

I had one wheel hub bearing go slightly bad. It would make noise when I was @ freeway speeds. So, when I was on the freeway, I would veer in the lane slightly from left , then to right. The noise would go away when I turned in one direction & got louder when I turned the other.

If it's tire wear, you're going to hear noise all the time.

Tire might be cupped from too much toe and/or camber.

ill check tires, I had a friend that has had multiple wheel bearing go bad over the year go for a ride with me....we did confirm if I turn to the right hard the noise does get louder...he is thinking it isn't bearings...either tires or half shaft....so he said research and monitor it...my last alignment was 10000miles ago...yes every other weekend I do spirited drives down the twisties... its not grinding or clicking it confused him also...bone stock suspension

another way to check for a wheel bearing is to jack up the vehicle and hold the spring while spinning the wheel, sometimes you can feel it but cant hear it
