I would like to say first sport style car, came from a Ford Ranger. Seems like the sound is a rotational hum that increases in intensity when the vehicle increases in speed. Seems to be coming from left front tire.
Vehicle tracks straight as an arrow when I let go of the wheel. and I am not receiving any abnormal vibration that would indicate a tire out of balance.

I am assuming that I am not used to the sound of a tire with such small profile and they just make more noise than a larger tire. In addition the tires are not worn....they still have sufficient tread depth and are not cup in any way. I just had the 30,000 miles service done, I assume they do a road test, and the TP would be checked.
