I have a 99 grand am gt...new tires,new passenger side wheel bearing ( for speed sensor failure). now there is an loud like humming noise coming from the passenger side that was there before we changed the wheel bearing. the faster you go the louder the sound...Please Help!!!!!! I thought maybe the cv shaft...but I have no shaking just sounds like I have a bad tire.

Place car on jackstands run in gear if noise is there not bearing. While up running can you pin point area of noise?
