We bought our '07 Subaru in my sig from my in-laws a year and a half ago. There's a noise coming from the rear that they say started when they replaced the OE tires. I had always been OK with that explanation (but surprised that the tires could be that loud), but last time I took it to the shop, they suggested that it may be wheel bearings. How can I tell? Here are some data points:
-Increases linearly with speed; becomes noticeable around 35-40 mph
-Doesn't seem to change when turning
-Sounds pretty much identical with winter tires (General Altimax Arctic) as with all-seasons (Dunlop Signature)
-Has been going on for probably 30,000 miles
Thanks!
