Arrow Humming when Turning Left

I have a 2005 Ford F150 Single Cab with a V6. Automatic Transmission. 17" Factory Wheels.

I have 160k on the odometer of the truck, and for the past two months I have had a "roaring" noise coming from what sounds like my front wheels. Its only when my wheel is turned to the left though. It make a sound as if i have mud grip tires on my truck, and I dont.

Cant find a clear answer as to whether it is something to do with the wheel bearings, or if its something completely different.

Looking forward to some advice! THanks!

Probably bearings or wheel hub. 4wd or 2wd?

Correct! It's 2wd. I changed the wheel assembly today. Brake rotors and bearings are one piece. Took care of the roaring. The old one was definitely wore out. Changed both of them. Front end is no longer in need of alignment either now.
