Road noise but tyres already replaced?

Evening all.

The wife's 2012 CT200 suffers from the typical road noise tyre issue, so after some research we've replaced the tyres with something better suited to the car and road noise has improved, but something still isn't right...... it sounds like a wheel bearing is on the way out. Interested to hear if anyone else has had a similar issue with their CT200?  Thanks!

Well a wheel bearing normally changes pitch with speed but is independent of road surface where are tyre roar changes with both speed and road surface. I haven’t had a wheel bearing go on my CTs but did in a works car around 70k miles.

The oem Yokohama tyres are awful for noise but even with better tyres I’m afraid the CT isn’t the best when it comes to cabin insulation, magnified the fact the engine is so quiet at cruise.
