does it happen under braking? or all the time? if its under braking your rotors could be warped. if its all the time then it sounds like tire roar resulting from a bad bushing or something, def have someone look at thought.

i have a similar issue, but mine is more of a clunking sound... most likely that the compression rod bushing is shot (common problem). thats what searching has led me to believe. Im getting under my car tonight or tomorrow to check it out.

and you can see this on your inner tread as well.

does your tires look anything like this

If it is a harmonic pulsating sound that goes away after a certain speed It could be a bearing. Is it louder when turning left or right?

Thanks everyone for your input. It was a bad wheel bearing. So I replaced my front wheel hub w/bearing assembly and it fixed the issue. I only had to replace one side the otherside was still good. I have an extra Hub w/bearing if anyone is interested in buying it off of me. I didn't replace the other side because why fix it if it aint broke? You know what I mean?

I'll Let it go for $100 +shipping I paid over $200 for both...

Thanks again everyone...
