Icon6 Noise at 40+ MPH help?! (Exhaust sound)

I have a 2000 civic ex

It makes a very loud noise at speeds above 30 (40 is worst)
It continues until 70+ and stats about the same over 40.

The noise STOPS when the car us turned sharply to the Right...

I think it may be a bad right wheel bearing ( no rattle, slight noise compared to left-barely noticeable-some slight vibration (vibration on spring with car hacked up spinning tire)

Wheels look fine...was told by mechanic tires are out if round...but rotation does nothing to the noise...so it is probobly not tire relate (right?)

Thinking about testing it with steeliness ( it had SI rims currently)


Any advice would be MUCH appreciated!!!

Yes i would say a wheel bearing. That the noise stops when you turn is clear indicator in my book cause I had one like that.
