Default 99 grang am

i have a humming noise in the front end. this only happens at 40 mph and higher. the faster you go the higher pitch the sound gets. you can also hear it when slowing down to 10-15mph at these lower speeds it loud and low pitched.also when i sway the car from left to right it goes away on sway to the right and louder to the left. i'm thinking wheel bearing but everything feels tight. any help would be greatly appreciated.

definitely a wheel bearing, and really not too difficult to replace yourself having proper tools.
