Default loud noise + vibration

for a few months now, after 20 mph the front end will start a squealing buzzing noise that produces vibrations. It doesnot changes that much when I go left or rigth.

Shouldnt be the bearings but I dont know. please advise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Balancing... alignment.... bearing. I'd give the medal to the bearing, I had the same situation and thats what my problem was. More info please.

I would have to go with the wheel bearing, i have not had one go out with a vibration on the Audi, but i have had vibration on other cars when the bearing went out. I've replaced 3 of 4 on the Audi.

Bent wheel?
