rumbling noise from my G35

i recently got this rumbling noise from my 04' g35. its from the front of the car.

i can hear it when i drive. it gets more noisy when im on the freeway and when im making a small turn on the freeway it gets louder.

i only got 64k miles on it. i was hoping it wasnt a wheel bearing. Anyone have this issue?

was it the wheel bearing or something else?

idk what kind of rumbling it could be.. but it could mean your wheels are not alligned and you're getting uneven tire wear or something? idk

We need some more details. Did this start suddenly? Does it only do it when turning left or right? Does it seem to be related to engine rpm or speed?

dont think its axle clicking.

ill check tires but i dont think its that, i hope it is though.

not related to engine at all.

and it happens all the time not just while slightly turning. i hear it while i drive but i hear it more when im slightly turning on the freeway.

Do you hear it while shifting to reverse?

How is the cars alignment? Could be cupped tires...

nope, its only when im driving. when im in reverse im going to slow to notice anything.

i just checked the tires and its wearing a little more on the inside then it is on the outside but i still got decent trend on it.

i hear it get louder if i go fast. its the loudest when i turn the wheel slightly while driving on the freeway

cupped tires is an uneven wear condition....a lot of times its caused by worn shocks. If this is the case you will need to replace your tires AND your shocks or the same condition will happen again.
