if your rear tires are not aligned correctly, they will generate "tire roar" noise, align it and it should be fine. if it does not go away, then your bearings could be bad as silverneontuner mentioned....

one thing to note, when i went from stock tires and rims to 16" rims and performance tires, there was a really big difference in noise levels especially on the highway...performance tires are usualy louder than the regular tires due to the tread pattern, material and lower profile , unless you go with some top of the line and expensive tires, then you should expect an increase on road noise..

an alignment will definitely improve the situation though....

good luck
