Cupped tire sound from front end
I have a 98 Honda Accord 4dr ex 4 cylinder with automatic. It has 110 thousand miles. I was told that the tires were cupped because the struts where shot. I replaced all the struts and put on new tires and had 4 wheel alignment. The car still sounds like it has a bad set of cupped snow tires on it. The noise comes from the front end. I am broke now and still can't find out what is causing the noise. HELP
Regards,
Craig

Thanks for the help. It turned out to be the right front bearing. I posted another question about my automatic trans having a sloppy 1st to second shift. I heard hat a company called Howards somewhere in the LA area made great rebuilt transmissions but can't find out about them.
Again thanks for the information.\
