Hmm, wheel bearing? Try jerking the car side to side when the noise is there, and see if it changes.

This almost sounds like the problem I was having a while back. Mine was coming from the center of the engine bay, though.

Try adjusting your timing a TINY bit to the counter, as this could be "Rotary Detonation." Or something like that.

Even if your tires aren't the problem, CHANGE THEM!!!!
