Default Slight hum around 60 (sometimes)

I had a related post but I don't know if I am asking the right question. This noise started to right after I had some new all season tires installed. They re-checked the balance so the tires are OK.

I can best describe as on certain patches or road around 55-60 I get a noticeable hum. I checked the front passenger wheel and the hub didn't show any up down play. So the hub seems good. So its not EVERY time I hit 60, seems like certain roads it is consistently happening.

What else could I troubleshoot?

Could be a wheel bearing.... Is it only on one side (the sound)???

Replaced one last year after 175K or so....
