Humming noise when driving over 52

[Motherhubbard76]

I finally have my tremor! Quick question. When I go over 52 I hear a loud humming noise inside the cabin. It stops around 70. I'm wondering if it's the tires and it'll get better once they wear a little bit since these are aggressive off road tires. Do any other of y'all's tremors humm over? Any ideas? I currently have less that 500 miles on the truck.

I dont have a tremor but I'd be willing to bet it is the tires. It is that or the diff but IMO that would be more annoying at lower speeds and not stop at 70 if something was wrong with it.

I think you are good but understand weird noises from a not cheap as hell vehicle can be annoying.

I've got almost 1500 miles on mine and don't recall any humming. I know the tires make a little noise and I hear some transmission whine here and there but nothing I wouldn't normally expect.

Not a Tremor owner either, but it sounds like one or more tires might be over- or underinflated, or defective. Check the psi with a good gauge (not the TPMS display). Be sure they are at the recommended psi on the drivers door jamb sticker. It's fairly common to have overinflated tires at delivery.
A driveshaft that is out of phase can cause groaning or vibration, but that would tend to be noticeable at all speeds.

Yeah I have experience with ko2s and don't recall this. I'll give it a little longer and see what happens.

Interesting.. I'll keep an eye on it for awhile longer and take it in if it doesn't go away. I don't think it's anything major. Thanks for the response!

After a drive this morning, I do feel some vibration in the steering like I am running over small rumble strips.

Is your lane departure on?

No it's off. I'm wondering if the tires are out of balance.. I'm going to give them a call in the morning.
