Tire Alignment???

MY 01 EDGE,WITH 56K, JUST RECENTLY GOT NEW TIRES. I UPGRADED FROM THE 235'S TO THE 30" A/T. TWO WEEKS BEFORE THE SWITCH MY FRONT LEFT SIDE TIRE STARTED TO HUM WHENEVER I EXCEEDED 35 MPH AND PULL JUST A LITTLE TO THE RIGHT, NOW THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING WITH THE NEW TIRES. WOULD A SIMPLE ALIGNMENT WORK?I FIGURED WITH THE NEW TIRES ALREADY BEEN BALANCED AN ALIGNMENT WOULD SOLVE THIS. INSIDE THE CAB, THE NOISE IS PRETTY LOUD BUT WHEN MAKING LEFT TURNS THE NOISE GOES AWAY AND UPON STRAIGHTENING IT COMES BACK. ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED BEFORE I TAKE IT IN.
THANKS,

DAVE

Take it to an alignment shop - *today*.

Something is very wrong in your front end. It *could be* a major safety issue.

HTH.

Sounds like the classic symptoms of a bad wheel bearing.
