やりすぎだ~

Maybe try putting back your stock wheels. If it makes the same sound, then it's the car.
If it doesn't make the same sound, then it's your new wheels. You said it's only around 30 mph when you hear the noise right? It could be just the sound when spinning at that speed. Bad example but like when you start spinning a wheel slowly and as you increase its speed, the wind resistance at the point generates a sound at that frequency, but spin it faster or slower and you don't hear it any more because you can hear the sound only at that frequency. Sorry, I really don't know otherwise. |

Im pretty sure its the wheels. When I changed my wheels the stock wheels werent making noise but after changing it, it started to make the noise.
I also noticed that I hear it at around 58-ish mph. |

Hmm...
If you checked the wheel bearings/hubcentric rings/etc. , then i don't know what else it is. I've never heard that sound before. It sounds like soemthing is out of balance. Did you install rear shims?? |

My car was running like neg 4 camber for a while, and it sounded like that, except a lower pitch sound, as wind was passing under the tires.
I'd bet it is wind passing through the rim, or check your alignment to see if that is causing the noise. I'm betting it's just wind passing through. No biggie. |

Shims are used to add negative camber in the rear, I believe.
