I am hearing a weird kind of droning noise when I coast between 25mph and 45mph. My current thought process is it's probably something tire related but my paranoia has brought me here to consult the experts, especially since I just tuned the car around a week ago an heard no noise before that. The noise itself sounds kind of like when you coast at higher rpms and engine braking, but the noise does not seem to change at all with rpms.
Details about the noise that makes me believe it is tire related:
1. Higher pitcher at higher speeds, lower pitched at lower speeds (only noticeable when coasting with no throttle)
2. I can only hear the noise with the windows closed, there is no evident noise from outside the car
3. The smoother the road the louder the noise seems to be
4. I was a bad boy and didn't rotate my tires until around 10k miles because I forgot (I am now at 15k and planning to do it again soon)
Is there any reason for me to be concerned about this being more than a tire issue?
What would my best steps be to diagnose this and/or fix this?
