Thumping and Pulling

Hi everyone. I am having an issue with a thumping noise and vibration coming from what I believe to be the front passenger side wheel. The vibration can be felt from about 35 mph+ and is worst at about 75 mph (which is annoying because I have a highway commute). I can hear the "thumping" sound coming from the front end and can feel it pretty violently through the steering wheel. I checked my tire--it's not cupped at all. Additionally, I had both front wheel bearings replaced about 4 months ago, so I doubt it's that. The car also, left to its own devices, pulls slightly to the left. It's not bad, but when I have to adjust the steering accordingly (i.e. countersteer about 5 degrees to the right) the vibration gets worse. Any suggestions?
 


I would double check the hubs even tho they are new because they may be defective and like FFDP said maybe it's a belt shift/separation. This is one of those things that require physical inspection. You could try to post some pics and maybe we can see something.

Start small and rotate the tires
