It will do that for a bit and eventually go away, and I cant hear it at higher speeds (Stops at around 15 mph). Is this my wheel bearing? I have yet to take the wheel off and look under there myself, but I figured I'd ask the question to get a rough idea of what I might be working with. Thanks

It dosent go off when I hit the brakes, only when I start from a stop. And, like I said, only until about 15 mph and then goes away.
