Default unknown noise while driving

I have a 1999 chevy blazer 2 door 4x4 ls automatic transmission with 202000 kms on it and my problem is while im driving i can hear some kind of road noise like my front tire is loose or somthing but it is for sure not. It also vibrates when im speeding up. I dont think its my hub bearing , loose tires ,or universal joint and my cv joints look like they are in good condition . Does any one have any idea what else it could be or a way to see what the problem is.

Any advice is much appreciated

look like and whats actually wrong are two different things. Have you checked for play in your hubs/bearings, u joints, etc? You cant tell **** just by looking.

i just replaced a joint a couple weeks ago and i have a little play with my front tires but just side to side none when i move it up and down so i dont think its either of those. i also replaced 1 of my hub bearings a few months ago so i think i would know if it was that because i already experienced that problem

have you had a front end inspection?
alot of shops are willing to take the 15 min to quickly inspect you tie rods, ball joints and idler arm/pitman arm for free...
get it checked out, play side to side could be tie rods or idler arm
