I have an 04 109,000 miles. My current tires werent bald, but less than great for winter.
I put some new all season tires on. Now at 60, I get a whirring. They re-balanced them for me. I still get a faint whirring. Is there a more definitive way to tell if its bad balance or a bearing. Let alone to tell which tire it is - I cant even tell what side the noise is coming from.
Any pointers or tall tales would be appreciated.

Jack it up and spin each wheel.... If it is a bearing you'll hear something.
You would think that anyone balancing tires would check, but I've watched my tire guys and they never bother.
