I have a humming sound coming from what I believe is the driver's side front tire area.
It starts at about 55mph, gets loud at 70mph, and then absolutely no humming at 72mph.
Any idea what it would be?
I have rotated the tires and checked the front tires.
No wobbling when lifted off the ground, and just a light rubbing sound when spun.
Thanks!

Is a pad sticking?
With the tire up, did you check movement from the 12 to 6 and 9 to 3 o'clock?

It could be a bad wheel hub assembly going out.
How many miles does she have.

I’m thinking bad wheel hub bearing starting to go out also.

My vote is bearing as well.
Mileage # would be great to have.

I checked for movement, and there wasn’t any.
59,000 miles I meant to add that initially, but I was in a rush and forgot.
I apologize.

If it's the original hub, odds it's drying up, hints you are starting to hear the sound you are.
Next, the wobbling will follow with a more intense rubbing\grinding sound.
HUMMING might be the first sign of deterioration happening.
Which side is it when spinning the wheel?
Or is it both?

It’s the driver-side original hub.
I had some Timken hubs delivered yesterday.
I just wanted to get more opinions before I installed them.

I replaced both front hubs yesterday - it wasn't as bad as I thought. Other than getting in and torquing the bolts.
I haven't had it up to speed yet, that will be tomorrow going into work. But from what driving I have done, I can't hear any type or noise anymore.
Thank you for all of the help!!!
