is this a sign of bad spindle or is it just my tire?

recently my '04 G35 6spd has been making this noise from the rear tire. im pretty sure its the right side. the sound, sound like big fat new threaded tire on truck rolling down the street (if you know what i mean). i do have new tire on the back. but when i first got it on, it didnt make that noise. but after driving it for a month or so, now its starting to make the noise, and the noise is mostly heard at a higher speed around 50-65mph. Is this just the new tire breaking down or is it one of my rear spindle going bad? anyone have this same experience or a bad spindle experience, please let me know. [email protected] or on here. thanks!!

The problem you are referencing is not the spindle, but the wheel bearing that actually goes bad causing the "winter tire" sound. What type of tire and when was the last alignment.
