    Hello,

    A howling or humming noise. Or sound like i have terrain off road tires which I don’t. Sounds coming from the front. I just replaced my front tires brand new today since the tires treads are bad. The noise is still there just not that bad like before. I’ve notice when I’m on the hwy and slightly turn my left the noise goes away. Help

    Possibly wheel bearing. Depending on how bad it is, that could also be the reason the tires failed. Tire shop should have caught that though.

    I wouldn’t put my hand between the tire and the floor with only a floor jack supporting the truck either.
