Loud tire noise when turning wheel to the right

Hi Guys,

Just suddenly (say over about 250miles) developed a strong tire noise when I turn the wheel to the right and I can feel the tire grooves through the car: it happens after about 20mph.

I went to my tire shop today and had a wheel allignment done by an experienced older guy.

It's no better or worse from the allignment. He told me that the rear was a bit high (not sure what that means in tire talk) and the fronts were not too bad but I did notice him loosen nuts on both the front and the rear to make adjustments.

Best way to describe the noise is as if you were to drive over a surface that had a fine corrigation.

Could something have loosened up in the front end?

Handles perfect with no pulling to either side but the noise is loud enough to sound like it is chewing rubber out.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
