Thanks. I am going to check if the dealer I bought it from will fix it, since I have a 3 month warranty left. I'm sure it is the front right wheel bearing. The slow speed, slight turn test points me to the bearing. Is definelty not tread or tire noise, or a rotor. I proved that changing the tires. The noise does seem to get more quite, with less vibration, as I drive at speeds greater than 70 mph. The harmonics of the bearing may cancel out at speeds greater than 70, and why its not as noticable. Its an annoying noise to me becuase I mostly drive the car at 60-65 mph every day to work. Passengers don't even notice it, but I sense there is something wrong cause I drive the car over 500 miles per week, so I spend a lot of time in it, and get to know it well. I am waiting for someone to notice it to and ask me if somethings wrong with the car!
