Default Noisy rear end

Hi, i have a gen4 prelude with terrible rear end humming - from the outcome of my previous post and the feedback of dodgy wheel bearings - i have replaced both sides! checked discs etc.If any one has experienced road noise too ideas would be welcome,
My final thoughts are tyres ! i am running goodyear eagles - quite a hard compound i believe ,or maybe a dodgy tyre? bushes or 4ws?
Went through the mot like this i add
Many thanks

Steve

Dumb question, but is it not the fuel pump? Probably is your tires...

go have your tires roadforced, anything over 20 pounds seems to make alot of noise, 30 is the limit but anything over 20 i forcematch and try to bring down, but IMO goodyear makes some really shitty tires........

Is it both sides on the rear or just one side?
