Default Groaning

Hi again to all , and wondering if anyone has any suggestions re the following....The front suspension of my car makes tiny 'groaning' noises as I drive along .It seems that any minor impurity of the road surfaces provokes the noise . It's just a bit annoying but doesn't sound sound as if the suspension is shot , the ride is still Jaguar quality.
My car is a 3.2 litre 2002 model . It has done 125 k's and I replaced the front shockers about 14 months ago . The car is in excellent condition and has not been abused.
Thanks in anticipation..........Alan Murgatroyd

Most likely wheel bearings if it is not a faulty tire. I have had several wheel bearings go out on different cars and they all have a deep groaning noise when they go bad.
