Any Idea?

Ok So I finally get to drive my car after being deployed for the last year. I checked all pre driver after you have been gone, Things Oil/Radi/Break fluid etc. I checked the air in my New Tires 33 psi all around... Now here is my problem.

When I get to the speeds of 50-90 If I turn the wheel to the left it shakes a little in the steering wheel.Like something rubbing but its only when Im at high speeds and turning to the left.I thought it was the breaks but.
I went and got my Rotors Replaced with New Pads and It still does it...Any Idea?Also It just seems to be the front left.

Wheel bearings will also typically make a humming noise when they start getting bad. Jack the car up on the one side you think is bad and grab a hold of the wheel, see if it wiggles. It shouldn't but if the bearings are worn enough, it will feel loose/sloppy.

Also, have you had an alignment done on your car? Has it just been sitting on a concrete surface for the full year or was it driven at all?

Did you torque the wheels correctly?

It's not much harder than changing the brakes and rotors if you buy the assembly. Parts are about $150 IIRC. I doubt it would take more than 20 minutes with air tools. I would never pay someone $300 in labor to do this on my car. On the other hand, I would charge a lot more than that if I had to do it for someone else. :^)
