ok, i have a 98 gst (not a spyder) on stock rims and the tires look ok............now whenever i get on the freeway i just get going fast enough (over 45 or so) i get a lot of cabin noise.......its like a loud humming noise that seems to get progressively louder the faster i go...... i searched the site to see what could cause this but the threads that i saw all dealt with awd models (problem being related to the rear axle)........ my question is what could cause this? is it my tires, rims or what? My opinion was maybe the wheel bearing but how do i know for sure? i dont want to spend money on something and find out that it was something else....................any help you guys could provide would be greatly appreciated.......
 
Well if it is noise from the suspension it could be a wide variety of things:
*Lack of lub at ball joints and tie end rods--just lub them
*Damaged strut mount--check
*Loose wheel nuts--check and tighten
*Lose suspention bolts --check and tighten

Could help if not sorry...
