Default Humming noise

Well i was careless this weekend and got annoyed of slow traffic. Was new to the area and i just speed up the hill and to my surprise it was full of pot holes and hard bumps. by the time i was over the hill, i say i hit about 10 bumps hard. Now i am noticing humming noise like tire noise from the riear passenger side. The tires look okay. Any suggestion on wut can cause noise like that. Speed doesn't matter the noise is constant at all speed. Untill a crawl then i dont hear it.

You may have picked up something in the tire, or have a bubble on the inside from the potholes.
Or you may have a bent rim and too much weight going on to the tire causing a noise.

Replace you back tires.
Tire whines are a dick.

you say the sound stays constant but does the sound go up and down with the engine rpm???? the first thing that came to my mind was that you may have hit those holes and you knocked a ground wire lose to an amp or cd player.

Noise doesn'treally change with speed or turns. The rear wheels dont reallyturn. But i am thinkingi mighthave messed up my wheel bearings. Or my alignment is whacked out again. Over hard bumbson the road the back end does a little little swivel. An alginment fixed that last time.
