Default Wierd Thumping Sound

So I got this thumping like sound going on when I drive. It sounds like it might be from a wheel, but I can't pin point it. It is noticible by sound when driving, and I can feel it in Driving me nuts. Could it be one of the wheels is off balance?

Maybe off balance. Or a bad bearing. Possible flat spot in tire.

I didn't even think of a bad bearing. How much would a fix like that go for. I noticed it started when I was driving home from Cali a few weeks ago. There were a lot of bad bumps going through Utah and Colorado. I'm thinking that might have had something to do with it. Also...where in Illinois are you from?

Im not sure what it would cost to fix if that is the problem. I wouldn`t think it can be too expensive though.
As for where i`m from. I live up in Mc Henry.

If you have had any exhaust work done recently it may be a pipe vibrating against the floorboard or something like that. It just happened to me.
