Just throwing it out there but it could be your suspension. My front passengers side coilover is blown and it's causing the exact same problem. Check that too just in case.

What brand of tire? I've heard a growing trend of Chinese tires being installed, veeery poor quality. Could just be a defective tire, it happens. Jack up that wheel and spin it by hand, feel the tread with your palm as it spins. Usually you can see the deformity in the tire if it's bad. It takes 5 minutes and it's free, just check the tire so you can rule it out.

Re: wierd noise left tire
Im riding On KyB springs and a stock dampener,
Brand New Kumho Ecsta ill just switch rear to front and see what happens
i already bought new rotors and a axle just gotta put them in , im convinced at the moment that its my axle i did have them shipped from hmo and i was turning the rotor and axel looked kinda lopsided when it was spinning , i could be wrong but ill see what happens when i put it all on i just gotta wait for my rotors to come in :/
Wait now that i think about it the tires i had on before were stocks and it still made same noise so i doubt its the tires

Re: wierd noise left tire
okay u still have NEW tires NEW tires can cup..... CUP meaning they are wearing on the inside or outside of the tire or uneven. Even a little bit of cupping can cause vibration and noise.I seen brand new tires cup. Take it back to where you got tire tell them to check if they are cuped. Check balljoints,tierod ends,struts,wheelbearings, and even bent axles. All these can cause noise and vibrations. Even tho you got an alignment, whoever did it prob. didnt even check if any balljoints,tierod ends,struts,wheelbearings, and bent axles are bad before doing your alignment.THIS CAUSING YOUR TIRES TO CUP.

Ghunt, what you described isn't cupping. Cupping is uneven wear between tread. What you described is camber/toe wear.
If your tie rods or wheel hub bearings are shot, it isn't possible to do a proper alignment. You can get close, you might even be able to get it within spec, but it won't be done correctly.

Re: wierd noise left tire
Weird thing is, this is happening to me too, but on the passenger front wheel. So it's either my tires, wheel barring, or front axel
