if the noise is present at all times the wheel is moving, it's TOTALLY CRITICAL you lift and secure the vehicle, and remove the offending wheel, and find the noise.
if it's bearing related, the wheel can fall off. it can even catch fire (yes, brake fluid IS flammable) if you've never seen what a wheel falling off a car can damage... you don't want to on your own car!
if you have wheel chocks, and a jack, and a lug wrench, you can easily pull the parts off and look to see what's wrong.
