humming noises comming from tires

Has anybody ever experiences humming noises comming from there tires when driving? It happens at highway and street driving speeds. I'm hoping its just a tire off balance but who knows.....any suggestions??

Yeah, I've experienced the same thing. It's just normal road noise...that's what we get for buying a car with 18's and street tires standard. I thought something was wrong with mine at first too.

soft compound tires will usually yield greater noise than those of a harder compound. The trade off is better traction and **** treadwear LOL!
