wheel noise?
i have a 91 integra
when i drive i hear a noise coming from my right front wheel
when the wheels are spinning you can hear the sound. i dont know exactly how to explain the noise but it just sounds like a spinning noise from the wheel. like you can hear the wheels spin and it feels like the wheel is going to fall off. anyone have any idea what this could be? and how would i fix it

What old man neri said is correct.
Another possibility is that your brake pads may need replacing. Most brake pads are designed with a metal tab that comes into contact with the rotor when they are worn to the point that they should be replaced. It usually makes a squealing noise. The noise can happen even when you don't have your foot on the brakes.
On some cars you can see how thick/thin the brake pad material is just by looking through the spokes of the wheel. It's not a comprehensive view, since it's just one edge of the outside pad, but it's easy to do since you don't have to remove the wheels. If you don't know how to do this, ask a friend who works on cars to show you how to tell. (If you want a more complete view, or if you can't see the pads through the spokes of the wheel, you have to actually remove the wheel/tire to see how thick the brake pads are.)

hmm it could be the brake pads like you said. cause i had someone look at my car a while ago and they said that i need new brakes. i bought new rotors and brake pads just need to put them on.
