does it sound like an airplane is taking off?? Does it change in pitch or anything when you hit the brakes or swerv left or right. if so you are looking a wheel bearings remove them check for pitting, ect... if all lots good do a repack and replace the grease seals.

Could be a throw-out bearing...... just as idea or possibly a small exhaust leak!
