    Typically on cars bigger and wheels that are spaced out tend to put more stress on the hub so wear the wheel bearing quicker. This is a real problem on 'classic' mini's with 13" wide wheels, some needing to be replaced every 6 months to a year!

    Does sound like wheel bearing, had one done on the rear of mine last week, mine sounded like a droning noise, seemed to come and go at different speeds...
