Thumping Noise



Hi all,

       Got a bit of a problem it seems, about three weeks ago a thumping
noise reared it's ugly head in the Q.  I assumed it was a broken belt in one
of the cheap tires that was on the front and today bought four new ones.
 Well now that it's much quieter, I know that it was definetly not the tires.
 The noise becomes noticeable over 40 MPH and gets worse when i take right
turns and quiets down when i turn left.  It's very loud and I can feel it
through the pedals!  (This is what I get for not sacrifcing my girlfriend to
the Audi gods.)  So I'm thinking wheel bearing possibly, but not having much
experience with Q's I'm probably wrong.  Help!!  TIA
