Default Rubbing or Humming Sound...

I have a 2003 Jetta and there is a rubbing or loud humming sound coming from the back passanger wheel well. I've had the tire changed, rotated, etc, and that hasn't helped. Any thoughts, other than taking it to a dealer? I like to fix things myself. Thanks!

are the tires rubbing?? Something hit the fender and pushed it in?? look for sounds of rubbing! Other than that, prolly a wheel bearing!
