sorry for a noob question but i jus put my new rota wheels on with sumoto.. tires 215/45/17 3 of them are the same tires doesnt look to have uneven wear and i have in the right rear a different tire with different tread design but its directional and i did put the right way tire brand is triangle:shrugs: but at any given speed i have this horrible howling noise could it be cuz they arr not balance? or cuz the tires it self are bad or could it be im not use to 17s?these r not crazy low pros i have 225/40/18 trd rims from the scion on there and the same exact thing so i just took themoff but what should i do sorry about th enoob question really like the wheels but its my dd and i hate to drive around with a bad howlin noise every speed. also my stock rims were toyota matrix rims 205/55/16

Make sure they aren't rubbing anything....could be tire noise though if they are cheap tires.

yea i wish i knew tho they came with the rims thats why and they look good

I've never heard of Triangle. Did you buy a wheel/tire package and choose the cheapest option? Usually they just throw the cheapest tires in there to make the package look attractive. I know I can get a package on eBay for a nice price but after researching the tires I found out that they are horrible. Research the tire before you buy it...it is the only part of the car that touches the ground; it's kind of important. =/
