Seems like a wheel bearing to you?

I think I have a bad wheel bearing... here are my symptoms:
1) Between 38 and 48 mph, the inside of my car sounds like an 18-wheeler on the interstate (WHIIIIIIRRRRRR)
2) Recently I noticed when I brake lightly (like coming to a stop sign), when I get to about 20mph the car rumbles and something inside my dash starts to rattle....
3) Today I was inspecting my tires, and decided to shake on my front wheels, and my driver's side kinda clicked and I felt a small amount of movement...

Now, when I got my wheels last spring I noticed the front tires are noisy (BFG G-Force T/A) by nature... and when I put my coilovers on (Still cambering hardcore ATM) the front end got like twice as noisy.

Sounds like a wheel bearing to you guys? My S14 has like 170k on the chassis, so it wouldn't surprise me.

Also, is it true I have to buy the whole hub? If so, I'll get Nismo extended studs while I'm at it.
