    A noise that sounds like knobby tire treads has been gradually increasing in loudness over the years.

    It emanates from the front winter and all season tires, becomes very distinct at 30km/hr, builds in volume until 100 km/hr then reduces in volume at higher speeds.

    There are a few 'sweet' speeds where the noise changes tone.

    There is no steering vibration.

    Swerving stops the noise momentarily but it returns when coming out of the swerve.

    The fenders and wheel well liners are all intact and secured with plastic bolts.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.

    I just checked a number of previous posts on this problem and the answer appears to be excessively worn wheel bearings.
