Right on sir. One question na lang po, is it really possible that misalligned wheels could cause that humming sound?

No. Misaligned tires like over positive or over negative toe and camber will produce a somewhat screeching noise like the one you get during high-speed cornering. The reason for this is because one tire or both is "scraping" the road instead of rolling freely straight ahead. You try to "correct" one side only to worsen the other and in the process, your car will wander uncontrollably from left to right and back again.

Check your transmission oil level.

AFAIK papalitan dapat yan. sealed type usually yung front bearing. papalit nyo na sir before it gets any worse. delikado yung wheel bearing.
