Default Rearend Noice/ Replaced wheel bearings

Ok so I am frustrated. I have a stock 10 bolt with the wirr wirr wirr noise or kind of a roar that pulsates with the tires. I recently replaced both axle bearings and axles. The noise is still there. My rear tires are completely bald and almost have the wires coming out (I know buy some damn tires) which I will soon, but I always thought that bald tires got quieter if anything. Do you guys think this noise could be something as simple as tires?

bald tires are always noisier...more tire to be in contact with the road.

Ok Thanks, do you think they would have the pulsating noise though? Its not a solid roar just like a wirr wirr wirr wirr that kind of goes directly with the tire rotations.

Sure, happens all the time, could be a tread separation starting. Are you feeling any vibration?

Yes there is a pretty good vibration at high speed. I can look over at my passenger side seat and it is vibrating badly, and my gearshift.

Get the tires replaced, and soon. The noise and vibration will go away.
