if your car is lowered with not camber kit.. it will make that noise. its air being passed in the thread of the tires just like the old fashion sirens

jack the car up inthe front
and if you can shake the wheels as if your was forcing it to make a right or left by holding it by the wheel .. its going bad..it shouldnt have any play at all.. cant be regreased need to replace it and they will have to press it in and will pack it with grease at the same time
