Default Possible Wheel bearing going bad on 03 Si?

This is a 2nd half of this thread: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=568118

I have come to the conclusion that this "hum" is a sign of a wheel bearing going bad? Hard to believe from my point of view since the car is only driven 20 miles round trip daily, and on good roads.

This is my daily driver but I am definitely not careless with it.

Anybody else have a wheel bearing going bad? Already?

Looks like Ill be taking my car back to the dealership.

bad wheel bearing will typically result in a roaring noise at low speed and usually isn't apparent at high speed.

also, if it's totally busted, you'll have some serious vibration issues at most speeds.

if it was a wheel bearing, you'd hear the noise at low speed as well as high speed, the sound would just change pitch.
