Wow! What an experience. I just found out what the problem was. I had 4 new Goodyear tires mounted and balanced. I was very pleased riding on them until I reached 60 mph. Then they began to vibrate and get noisy, the faster I went the worse they got. We got it narrowed down to oner culprit wheel, I borrowed my buddy's tire and wheel and "wa la" smooth ride all noise gone. Back to Goodyear dealer for another new tire and now no more problems. Just a warning, you can't assume anything.
 
I ran into the same problem. The Good Year dealer placed blame on everything but the tires, (bent/out of round rims, etc.) yet when I replaced two of them, the vibration completely disappeared. The vibration was around 60-65 MPH and up, very annoying because that is where I drive at frequently.
