lound repeating thumping noise when driving over 65mph?

[projectmx]

when i'm on the highway doing about 65 and up (i can hear it a little after 55 but hardly) i hear a loud kinda thumping noise almost like rumble strips but slower. i've heard it almost since buying the car this summer but it is getting louder. i found out i had 3 out of 4 bent rims. so could this noise be from the wheel bearings going bad? any other cause?

can anyone let me know if this is likely caused by needing new hubs/bearings? i don't want to order them if i don't need them

look and feel the tread on the tires. sounds like the tires are choppy or cupped.

but the tires are only a few months old, they started doing it after a few weeks of being installed and i think it was doing it slightly before the new tires also... and the rims i had on up till last month were bent 3 out of 4 of them were at least

Also when driving perfectly straight the noise is most not there but turning either direction even slightly it gets very loud and I can feel it through the floor and the steering wheel.

does it shake as wel?

could it be wheel balencaing?

does your wheel move back and fourth when it is off the ground? I just solved a smilar issue by replacing the steering knuckle. the pinch location that holds the ball joint was reallly, really worn. take a look at that. took me forever to realize that was the issue.
