Sounds to me like the noise your describing would best be called a "growl" ---- like driving over rumble strips. If that's the case, then I'd suspect front wheel bearings. However, noises are difficult to describe. One thing you can do to help narrow it down --- does the noise change in pitch and intensity when you turn or weave the vehicle from side to side? If so, then it would be a good bet that the wheel bearings are failing. Also, does it change when you apply or let off the gas? If so, this would be more of an indicator that a differential bearing is going bad. Hopes this helps, it's the best I can do on the limited info.

Get your CV boots, Cv joints, and axles checked. This about the age of a car that needs these parts replaced, and the starting costs will be around $300.

don't check the CV shafts because you don't have those on a rear wheel drive car...if the sounds changes Along with the speed of the car then is something in the drive line....start with the easy things first....there usually cheaper....tires, out of round, broken belt, bent rim....then the suspension, check shocks and springs...then in the drive shaft..u joints and then the brakes...good luck

Sounds like you need to have your wheel bearings replaced.
