    Pull over after driving a bit and feel your hubs to see if one is too hot. If so, probably a bearing or the brakes are hanging up.
    Have the brakes been adjusted kately?

    If brakes are dragging or a bearing is bad you would know it from the smoke or fire.
    You drag a brake for a mile and there will be plenty smoke
