    Could be from the ring and pinion, axle bearings, fuel pump getting weak, is it constant or change in pitch as you get to higher speeds?

    Also have a look at your tires--if there is any "feathering", that can make a tire very noisy.

    One test---let off the gas--is the noise still there?

    tires are new and not feathering  must be wheel bearing.

    Hard for us to hear the noise of course. Wheel bearings are more like a "ball-sy rumble". If the noise were higher pitched, like a siren, then more likely ring and pinion and usually make noise only on "pull".
