Re: Are front bearings a maintenance item? Weird sound...

Tires do go bad too. If you had a broken belt in the tire or a lump, rotate it to the front, voila!

That Hunter road force balancer roberthammen mentioned is supposed to be excellent at finding out if a tire is just plain bad, since their machine won't be able to satisfactorily balance it then. Granted, using it didn't help mine much, but things are just getting a little worn out at 183k miles now.
