New rims and tires humming sound

Good day! Just want to ask about the humming sound I am hearing ever since I replaced the stock metal rims and size with a toyota alloy rims and tire size for my toyota yaris 2010 sedan. Is there any solution for this humming sound? Please help! Thank you!

What kind of tires did you get? That sound may just be due to the design of the tires.

^ yup. my diamondback 18s sound like a sherman tank. the only way to reduce the noise would be to spray undercoating or truck bedliner in the wheelwells. or sell those tires, do research, buy new quieter ones.

Yep, exactly what they said. Probably just live with it until you need new tires.

try changing tire pressure up or down. That may reduce the noise.

Up, most likely.
