    i just installed Copper ST Maxx (235/85/16) on a 2016 SR 2WD. I understand some road noise is normal coming from Stock Firestone tires. There is a slight hum from them. I’m running 32 pounds front and rear. The sound seems to be coming more from the rear. It is definitely tire noise not rear end or drive shaft.

    Sounds like a tire to me! Turn the radio up and don't sweat it

    Did a alignment come with the install? Not much can be done on the rear for alignment. Are they a mud or At tire?

    Yes. Everything is at factory specs.

    That's a aggressive tire more prone to road noise especially on certain surfaces. Most likely your all good. New parts, new noise, new worries. ;)

    Do the chalk test to determine if you are running the best pressure for your set up.
    Once that is done and you still have noise, turn the radio up.
