Front end noise 07 camry

Hi fellas,
I drove dad's car tonight. I heard a low tone grumble from the front end. My first thought was that it was an exhaust leak but it was speed dependent. Noticeable from about 25-30 mph and quite noticeable around 45, then wind and road noise seemed to drown it out a bit around 60. Then I thought it may be a bearing or something so I threw the car in neutral still there, I killed the engine and coasted still there.....any ideas, 45k miles on the car so far, recent new rotors and pads which seem to work perfect, new michelin tires that look great....

You know, maybe a hint of it from the steering wheel, gas pedal, brakes seemed fine....it seems like something that is spinning while the car is in motion is making a sound....my guess is a bearing, can recent brake job replacing a rotor cause something to go bad? can caliper somehow be on wrong?? rotor looked perfect on each side? BTW thanks for replying Netforcer, your front end conversion looks great.

Axle? Does it make noise when you turn into a parking spot for example?

Im having a similiar problem on the driver side rear wheel. It would make this rubbing noise that is very distinct from the wheel rolling. Tires are pretty new ~5k and 22k on the Camry.

I took it to the dealer as it is still under warranty and I dont nkow what they did but said there was nothing wrong with it and I should take it back to the tire shop. I then took it to Discount tires where i got the tires and they also said nothing wrong with it! They claim car might need alignment but I have no problem steering.

Need help narrowing this problem down. Thanks
