road noise

I have 2004 Verona. I have excessive road noise. The car was quiet when I bought it. I have bought two sets of tires in the last year and still have the problem. It was suggested that i might have a bad motor mount, and i have heard of that problem on the Kia. Any ideas?

Took my verona in and found out that the real wheel bearings were out.
That fixed the problem. FYI--I did not know this car has no adjustment for alignment, according to the dealer.

Wheel bearings are very possible.

The alignment is extremely limited as in "toe" adjustment only.
Alignment will not correct any "pulling" issues on these.
Pulling is usually due to tires or a suspension component being bent (which a alignment WILL show).
