Default Strange sound

I have a strange sound coming from the rear of my car. It sounds like the tire is rubbing but there is plenty of clearance. You can feel a small vibration in the car and the soound changes pitch with speed. Also when you steer the car to the right the sound dissapears. If you steer in the other direction the sound is still there. I'm stumped and this started happening out of know where.
