recently my car has started to make a really weird and loud sound from the rear end its more of a deep sound and its like vibrations almost, its a 92 civic hatch CX all stock, but lowered on H&R Springs, i was thinking it was the rear drums? my grandfather was thinking its the rear bearings, but it defently is comming from rear end, it almost sounds like when you have unbalanced tires up front. it only makes the sound when its over 35 mph, and both rear tires are differnt, but ive had tires for over 6 months and they both still have 60%+ tread on them. any ideas??? leme know please - im not driving my car right now, insted my g/f drives me around....

Wheel bearing, tire noise, brake backing plate is rubbing the drum, rear shoes could be metal to metal

bearings are fine, breaks work pretty good and im starting to think its the tires need balanced/roatated

I dont think unbalanced wheels make noise. just vibrations. Which may cause a noise if its bad enough. But the noise you are describing definately sounds like a wheel bearing.

just a question. do you have all of your lug nuts? vibrating wheel could make the noise
