Wheel noise?

Alright guys so im new here. Currently own a 2009 infiniti g37x coupe. Recently i replaced my wheel bearings because i thought it was time to change em due to a noise coming from the driver side tire. I changed the wheel bearings and all my lights came on ( vdc off, slip, awd, abs ) so i double checked the tire and from the inside its starting to show a little bit of camber. Now the question is do i need a alignment? When I drive the car on the highway it does slightly go to the side but its not bad at all. Could that be the wheel noise? Or is there something else i should check? All my fluids are good as well. Passenger tire is starting to bump up a lil on the inside as well. Back tires are pretty much new.

check that the ABS Sensor was not damaged or left unplugged during the installation of the Wheel bearings. They sit in the steering knuckle and need to be removed to remove the wheel bearing...if it was mishandled during the installation it may have been damaged and would throw those lights

Most roads are cambered and that by itself will cause a car to drift, usually towards the shoulder.

Since the steering is self-centering, front alignment won't cause a drift, but rear suspension can. In addition, asymmetrical front tire wear can cause drifting. If your front and rear tires are the same size, swap them front to back and see if that makes a difference.
