Default Some kind of rumbling when accelerating.

Hey there.
Thank you very much for reading this.
I have a 2012 Honda Accord 4 cylinder base model from Enterprise Rent-A-Car.
I just replaced both front bearings and hubs, and now I have another issue. When I first accelerate I feel some kind of rumbling that when I tap on the gas it kind of goes away and at normal cruising speed isn't there.
It almost feels like it is the tires, but like I said at cruising speed it isn't there. Only on acceleration.
I don't have a lot of cash to have someone else check it out and I was wondering where I should start looking myself.
Anyways, once again I appreciate you reading this and I would be very grateful for any feedback you might have.

welcome to the forum. when the car is cool, check to see if you can bump the cat to see if that has a rattle, check all your exhaust mounts and nothing touching the body, check your tires for rough or high spots, check your engine mounts. my Honda Fit made a rumbling sound on acceleration and it turned out to be a rear engine mount worn,

Welcome in,I agree with 52, tires can look fine but can cause things like a out of alignment feeling to rumbling as you described, also check the bearings again,sometimes even new ones fail.good luck.

Default Thank You to everyone for the help.

Everyone was great with their ideas on where to start.
It turns out it was a worn-out motor mount.
I really appreciate this for him and all of you people!
