help with noise from driver's side quarter panel - higher speed makes louder noise
So coming back from eibach i noticed a weired noise coming from the drivers side quater panel the more i sped up the louder it got . i got up to 90mph and it was loud and got a little shaky
Tires are new, wheels are nice and tight , has new LCa's,new sway bar i cant think of any thing that i ran over. i raised and took both rear tires off and every thing looks normal .
If anyone has had this problem and fixed it LMK

Sounds like a wheel bearing to me. Does it get worse when turning right?
I had a bad one go very bad while the camera was running at a race April 30th. It lets loose at 2:40 in this video...

We tore the car apart and determined it was the bearing, but it would be safe to race on the next day. As a precaution we moved it to the right side to reduce the level and duration of the loading it would have to endure. Practice went OK and I was able to finish the race on Sunday.
Both sides were since replaced and I have a new 3rd one as a spare.

national (moog brand) bearings are 50$ at advance auto
a free discount will get em around 35-40$
this worked for my front wheel bearing
if your wheel is making the car shake, when traveling at higher speeds, apply the brake pressure, if the rotors been replaced and isnt warped, applying brakes will straighten the wheel out because the caliper is stationary
if doing this rids the vibration, then your bearing is bad
