Wheel Bearing?? So I want your guy's opinion before I go and throw a new wheel bearings on my 99TA. I have this slight rubbing noise and vibration coming from the front of my car at about 60 to 70MPH. It goes away when I make left turns on the highway any speed below 60 I don't hear it anymore. I jacked my car up and shook the tire on both sides and they seem fine. Do you guys think its a wheel bearing or a alignment issue. My tires seem fine as wear goes but I don't drive it to much to really notice at this point. Thanks guys.

If it was an issue with the wheel bearing you will be able to rock the wheel assembly in and out by pulling on the 12:00 position and pushing on the 6:00 position. It will be really obvious that there is an issue because you will totally feel the wheel rock in and out. I should know, I went been thru more hubs last season than most people do in a lifetime.
