Front End Noise?

2001 SE Auto, no mods.

I am getting a rumbling noise and vibration in the front end. It started just at 65 mph and now anywhere from 55 mph to 75 mph. The thing seems to be growing! Any ideas?

I would start with....

checking the front brakes (to make sure nothing is hanging up and not releasing properly), as well as the front wheel bearings...

these are by no means all you can check, I would start with these though....

Thanks very much. Front wheel bearings? I have been this route before with an Accord, dealers hate to deal with bearings.
