drivetrain noise?

i have a very rythmic hum that is based on vehicle speed (not engine speed) that increases from 0-60 then decreases to 70. pitch changes also with speed. NO vibration, i cant even feel it. I have switched between stock and my aftermarket wheels a couple times because of a flat issue however thats all that has happened recently w/ the car


any ideas whats up?

i have a similar sound but to me it sounds like the tire is out of balance but i have no vibration from the tires. So i know the tires are not out of balance. Im thinking it's one of the wheel hubs, cause my ABS light come on after about 2 mins of driving. Any ideas??
