05 Prius running loud

Hello!

05 Prius 254k miles, no error codes, no dash light warnings, I just swear it use to drive quieter. No vibrations in the steering wheel. I feel it is way louder than it use to be even at lower speeds. It will be basically silent like always when gas engine is off at stoplight. I feel like this might be front wheel bearings, sound is definitely coming from the front not back. I have tried to make an audio recording and I can post it but I just listened to it and thought it wasn't much help. I have searched here as I have used this site a ton on my previous repairs but I didn't find a close match to my issue, mainly the lack of vibration in my steering wheel even when car is loudest. Tires are about a year old. I live on a dirt road and have for a decade, idk.

I guess I need to just get it looked at by a pro. Any thoughts on the loud drive without vibrations?
