Default HELP rubbing/buzzing noise from rear of car

so i just noticed the other day that at speeds above like say 25mph im getting a constant buzzing/humming/rubbing noise coming from my passenger rear tire. almost sounds like i have an exhaust but i don't or like a piece of plastic is rubbing the tire, but there is nothing. the noise will get louder when speed is increased and when i turn and take the weight off the passenger side it stops. car is lowered with ground control and koni's if that matters. i need help soon tho the 4 hr drive i have again tomorrow is gonna be mind numbing. thanks

Sounds like wheel bearing. Try driving car at highway speeds for a few miles. Then take a portable Mac temp gun and measure hub temps on back. If the side making noise is hotter, you need a new wheel bearing.

Or you can just rock the wheel and see if there is play.

Could also be that your drums need a bit of adjustment or cleaning.

Maybe you ran over a piece of debris and it go wrapped up in there. Have a look see.
