There's no problem there then, you'd be able to tell if there was play.

My vote is on an unbalanced wheel...hit anything recently that might cause a weight to fall off?

No problem. I wish I could say for certain but my guess is an unbalanced tire vibrating at an audible frequency, since you said the bearings are fine. FYI, rear bearings typically take 30-60k more miles to go than the fronts on FWD cars.
