Front Wheel Noise? (bearing?)
 
Howdy all, I've got a strange sound coming from my front, drivers side tire. It's speed sensitive, getting noiser as the vehicle speed increases, not engine speed. It also gets louder when I turn to the right and slightly louder when I turn to the left, aka lateral forces make it louder. I especially notice it on long sweeping onramps, etc. It's progressively getting louder and I can feel a vibration that matches the sound through the steering wheel.

Sound like a front wheel bearing problem?

What about the tire itself? Has it lost any pressure? Has it deformed at all? Is the problem getting worse?

I had a similar problem. I was told it could be; the bearings, or tire pressure, or a worn tire, or the wheel is unbalanced. My problem was the wheel was unbalanced, don't ask me how. Good luck.
