300D Wheel Noise

1985 300D
I notice a low pitch sound I know comes from the front wheels. Its very hard to describe. I would almost say its similar to brake pulsation sound - not feel. Slower when going slow, faster as I go fast and disappears. But more pronounced when I brake at slow speed. Normally, if its wheel bearings, I expect it to be there all the time with a humming sound - easy to detect especially when you turn your wheels left and right as you are moving.

But its not that kind of sound.

The brakes work very well but as I mentioned, that sound is more pronounced when braking.

Can't figure it out.
