Default noise in front right wheel WTF?

Im workin on a 94 Accord cp. The front right wheel sounds like there is a mud tire on it . The axel looks like it is in good shape (no tears and clean) and I already rotated the tires . Bearing? Any help would rock.

could be a bearing, cv boot on the axle, brakes, or a rock in the tire...you need to be more specific about the noise, other than it sounding like it's rding in on mudding tires...

I had a bad wheel bearing that sounded just like that. But it could be the axle or other stuff. I don't know how to tell FOR SURE except to take the steering knuckle out & spin the bearing by itself. When I did that, the bearing was very tight & rough.

Yep. Definately the wheel bearing. Just replaced mine a few months ago. No mistaking that Super Swamper sound.
