Default sound like bad wheel bearing?

Driving on the freeway today my car started to make a noise. Like some rocks stuck in something and making noise. Car doesnt wobble either so no bent rim.

From the passenger side. It was all mph wise all the way until i stopped the car. And yeah i would say the noise is a grinding to. But when im going slow the sound is slow and when i go faster so the sound to. And car has medium high miles

also i got new rims, but they arent bent and they were fine before this happened. there are no vibrations like no steering wheel shake, so i dont think anything is bent. Its just the noise.

Does the noise stop when turning left or right?

Wheel bearing noise will sound as if you are in an airplane when traveling on the highway usually.

if it's the rear you can diy fairly easily. you'll need a press for the front, make your own!
