What would cause a high pitched humming/ whine road noise at speeds starting at 45mph, especially at 65+mph

Asked by mebby May 17, 2012 at 09:39 AM about the 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT FWD

Question type: General

Road noise at all speeds  generally seems louder than my 1999 Chrysler T & C, but this vehicle has Stow n Go seating, power doors and hatch, also tires have maybe 1 more year of use as judged by salesman.  Also the humming noise varies with road surface...

could be a wheel bearing, or just the build difference of the two vehicles

it seems to me like that would be something with the tires it depends on the tire its self what brand whether its a cheap tire or not usually you get a lot of road noise with more aggressive tires like what would be on a pickup but ive seen street tires make road noise like that as well
