is this a tire issue or is it a wheel bearing issue? I am trying to not spend a crap ton of money that i don't need to

Usually it's just tires, get them rotated and balanced and see if the sound moves to a different tire, that will confirm it's the tires. Also you should have your alignment checked because that can cause strange wear on the tires which can lead to noise like that.

With the tires off the ground you can spin them by hand and listen to the wheel bearings and pull the tire back and forth from the top to check for axial play in the bearing. Not familiar with the exact workings of that vehicle but those things are pretty much generic advise for all vehicles.
