Loud Humm from front wheel?
My passenger side wheel makes a very large humming noise when going 5 - 25mph. I was told it was the wheel bearing but of course I had that replaced and the problem is still happening. I don't know much about the front end but It's a 2000 E320 and I have 19" wheels on it. Any help to get rid of this annoyance would be much appreciated. Thanks

Thats exactly what I thought but the bearing was replaced a few days ago and its still making the humm. The bearing needed to be replaced for a while. Any chance this caused another problem that is making the humming noise?

Sticky brake-caliper? Tire rubbing? Something caught in the profile of your tire? Is the tire pressure ok? Does only that rim feel warm/hot after a long drive?

My guess is that it may be my tire? I bought new rims last week but i'm using the same tire. The tires are about out of thread and I need to replace next week. Could it be the tire?
