Help With a Front Wheel Issue
My long commute dictated a new daily driver so I picked up a 2000 Hyundai Accent for $300. I fixed several minor problems with the thing but recently a front wheel issue has popped up.

Whenever I'm driving it makes a loud humming noise from the front wheels. Inside edge of the front tires are starting to wear unevenly. I did a full rotation but the problem continued.

If I turn right the noise stops but a left turn makes it slightly worse.

The car drifts right very slightly when at highway speed.

Bearing? Simple fix?

Thanks fellas.

Everyone’s mileage will vary, but it’s been my general experience that after I replace/repack bearings on one side it quiets that side down enough that I start hearing the other side.
And really, unless you’ve got a cracked seal that has allowed dirt and moisture in to foul the bearing on one side or the other, they should all have approximately the same amount of wear on them.
If you’re looking to save money then only replace what you need when you need to. Personally if I have to take my daily driver down for maintenance I’ll do it all at once just because I can’t afford to have my DD down for more time than necessary.

My bad. The quick reply button is right above the "Up" button to get back to the lounge. And I'm on a rough tractor.

I just don't see that in my experience with wheel bearings, and we do quite a few.
