Road noise
Want to see if I can get some ideas on what might be my problem. Im getting excessive roadnoise from the front end. Almost sounds like some grinding goning on. I just bought this car, its a 1995 325 4dr I have. So i replaced the rotors which were a little warpped. but sill getting a lot of road noise.

Wheel bearing.

^ What he said. If it's a grinding/metallic noise, I'd guess wheel bearings. But just road noise, particularly if it's kind of a yah-yah-yah-yah noise (best I can do right now), check the tires for feathering or cupping, particularly the front tires.

Grinding would most likely be wheel bearing, cupping will give you road noise, I know because I've got it. Left front tire cupped on the insiide edge.
