this might be a dumb question, but are your tires directional? What pattern did you use to rotate these tires (front to rear, diagonal, etc.)?

get your tires balanced. Same thing happened to me turned out my tires had camber wear from the rear toe being so out of spec and couldnt be balanced. i rotated them back to the back and the sound just about went away.

Check your rear tires for camber wear and/or try to get them balanced. If you're lucky some balancing weights came off. Then get an alignment. My rear toe was way off for some reason. It makes the tires "chop" and wear unevenly. I can still hear the noise come from the rear, but its so subtle if I hadent noticed it in the first place from rotating them, I would never be hearing it.
