You'd hear a wheel bearing....its louder as you driver faster and the sound will go away when turning depending on which side the bad wheel bearing is on.
I replaced the drivers side and it was making that noise (almost sounded like tire road noise but way louder)....now the drivers side is starting to go. If you (or if the EVO is second hand the previous owner) pushed the car without axles they'll be toast (Previous owner of my car said they didn't but here I am replacing another wheel bearing.

Swaybar or end link. Theese tend to break from time to time. Grab your rear swaybar and jerk it. It should not move. Other than that check the obvious, lugnuts, shocks, exhaust and hangers, strut tower bar.
