Default Loud noise

Whenever i'm on the highway my car is very loud
Mainly when going over 60 mph.
Its road noise, very loud like a plane going down a runway.
My alignment isn't perfect, but could it be anything else?

2010 Lexus ES350
Yokohama YK580
Car has 38,000 miles

Possibly a bad wheel bearing.

Any good shop can do a wheel bearing. I had a Firestone shop do the right front one on my wife's ES300 when that one made noise. The left side was replaced before the warranty expired.

But maybe it's your tires. Some tires are horrible for noise. The road surface makes a big difference how the tires sound going over them.

What year is your ES?

I would tend to agree, fresh asphalt and the car is whisper quiet. Regular roadway and I get quite a bit of road noise.

Am I right in saying the 2010's this problem was fixed?
