Noisy Wheel Bearing, what side?

Car is a 2003 Saturn Ion. About 49k miles.

Car has newer firestone tires, with less than 10k on them.

Car is making a slight buzzing sound when i turn right at highway speeds (exiting ramps at speed and stuff).

Its not real loud, but enough to annoy the hell out of me.

Should I be looking at replacing the left or right front wheel bearing?

It sounds like its coming from the right but pretty hard to judge.

Anything else I should look at with this thing?

Nothing has been replaced in the front end, hell it even has the factory pads and rotors (about half pad left on the pads)…

Do you really expect us to be able to tell what side the sound is coming from through a computer monitor?

well when you turn right more load is placed on the left wheel bearing so i’d be looking at that one. but as stated best way is to look at in on a lift.

If it makes a noise turning right then it’s your left wheel bearing IF it is indeed a wheel bearing.
