rear wheel vibration

i just discovered a vibration coming from my rear drivers side wheel. im assuming that its the wheel bearing. but the manual says nothing about a bearing back there? i am currently 7 hours from home visiting my gf in college, i hope i make it home. iwould think that if it were a wheel bearing though, wouldnt the wheel rock a little if it were pulled on?cause it doesnt. i dont know what else to look for.

your bearing may be no good. That same bearing "drivers rear" fall apart on me but i had no vibration that I could feel while driving.

also check the lug nuts make sure they are on tight.

put your hands on the top of the wheel and try to move the wheel back and forth. if there is play then your bearing is no good.
