Default Xd monsters making a little noise??

I have a 2013 fx2 had stock wheels and rims. I bought 22x9 and 33" tires. I installed them and I'm driving and there is a little rumble/hum noise to them when driving straight. There is no rubbing at all anywhere. They came off of another f150 and have been balanced and everything before I put them off mine.
ANY SUGGESTIONS OR COMMENTS?

It's likely the tires not the wheels. Unless they are rubbing something or your bearing has just so happened to go out after putting these on.

What tires did you put on.

The tires and wheels were already together when I got them.

Do they have an off road pattern if they do its just wind trapped in the grooves of the tire

Anything that is considered an M/T (Mud Terrain) will be loud. Any A/T (All Terrain) with an aggressive pattern won't be as loud as a mud tire, but louder than a radial. That's probably what your issue is.
