Crazy noise like theres a small plane in my fender

Ok so there isn't actually an airplane in my fender. There is a noise though when I'm driving down the road over 40 miles an hour I hear a faint sound almost like my under fender plastic rubbing on my front tire as im driving. Welll thats not it because i made sure. I further diagnosed it to the drive side of my car its like samll buzz but not to loud it only gets louder as the car is rolling faster thats right rolling it's def not the engine or tranny i put it in nutral and the noise continues. I would compare the noise honestly to a small
fart can (not as loud) in my fender. i can't see any plastic rubbing, I had that problem before because a piece of ice got stuck and shredded my plastic. The only aftermarket parts i have are S-techs and Hp's. Oh yah and the sound doesn't get worse or better when cornering either. Any input would help alot...please god don't be my driveshaft.

Searched a little bit around the forum and seen that somone had a similar problem and a reply to his problem was the alignment.....I havn't got an alignment on my car since my drop of 1.5".... I think we have a winner wheel bearings were another concernt too though.^^ I hope it's alignment, im gonna get that asap but if anyone has anyother suggestions please let me know. Imma go check my tire wear on that side.
