Squeaking & Whirring

First off, there seems to be a whirring when I'm driving that only gets softer/hard to hear when I turn right (even slightly right).

Secondly, there's a noticeable squeak or squeal when I pull into a parking lot and somewhat noticeable squeak when turning.

In addition to those quirks, I also appear to wobble a bit when traveling at highway speeds.

Not sure if all of these are related, but I would like to address as many as possible, whichever is the most important or kill all 3 birds with one stone if possible.

Sounds to me like all of those could be from a bad wheel bearing. I would jack up the car and see how much play there is. Sounds like your problem might be in the front right wheel, but I would check both front wheels. Grab the wheel at 12 and 6 o'clock position and see how much you can wiggle it. There should not be very much play.
