Default Strange humming noise... (Bearings?)

Hey guys..

I have noticed a progressively louder humming noise/shaking that occurs when I reach speads in excess of 70 MPH+

It appears to be loudest / most pronounced by my back left wheel. I have done some searches and have noticed that other users have posted that it could potentially be bearings that cause the humming? Would this also potentially cause the vibration that I am feeling throughout the car?

- Strong noticeable vibration
- Humming when above 70 MPH
- Vibration in pedal at higher speeds


What could this potentially be? Prior to me taking my car in I want to get an idea of what to expect so that I don't receive bad advice or get taken advantage of..

Please advise

99% sure its a wheel bearing. Did you hit a curb with that tire?

I did my wheel bearing for like 45 bucks myself. Had a shop press it for free.
