Whenever I drive past 40-45mhp I hear this humming sound from either my rear or front driver side wheel. I am pretty sure its the wheel bearing. I was wondering if our cars need to have the bearing pressed on with a special machine, because my friend said some cars do and some don't. Does anyone know if the bearing needs to pressed on?

you really don't tighten bearings and they dont' screw on they are pushed in its just not "pressed" per say........and if you understood bearings its not a tightening thing its once they lose grease/lose a ball or whatever they are permanently screwed nearly (you can regrease them, some kinds) you just have to go replace them especially if you have over sized wheels (17s or higher) the bearings can suffer and cause much more damage aka a hub and such
