this past week I noticed a vibration and grindin noise under my feet while drivin, so I changed out both hubs figurin might as well do em both before the other goes out and after I did it I still feel a vibration under my feet. just on the drivers side though. any ideas of what it could be? I've read it could be cv axles but don't want to dive off into anything unless I know or sure

Like Dave says crawl under the car looking at the front axle, look for busted boots or great gobs of grease in the most conspicious places.
Let me ask you how long have you had this noise? And how long have you had these tires? A bad alignment can ruin the tread on a set of tires making them choppy, cupped or scuffed. That can cause that vibration and grinding noise, especially since you dont have normal 17, 18, all terrain tires. You have 33s, right? You look at that tire tread and I bet that is where your noise is coming from.
I think it is your tires bro...

I'll check out the front axle when I get out of class...and I plan on gettin an alignment tomorrow so I'm hopin that will help. as for checkin the cv's could it just have grease anywhere or cracks I'm guessin? never messed with a cv on my truck but have done everything else

With a CV all the grease SHOULD BE INSIDE THE BOOT. If its outside then the boots are bad and you tend you get massive vibrations upon acceleration(when the axle is in use like a FWD fulltime car).
