it may not be the bearings. to be sure, simply jack up the rear so the
tire is off the ground, then check for looseness and grittiness.

humming noise is more likely a tire issue or even a bushing issue. i
had that recently on my civic. i tracked it down to worn rear top
control arm bushings. i replaced them and the problem disappeared.
