Default Road Noise RX330

Took delivery on my RX 330 today. I had read the Consumer Reports on how quiet it was. On the drive home, the only time it was quiet was when I drove on Fresh Blacktop. I specifically chose not to get the MDXbecause I drove it and was unhappy with the amount of road noise. The Nissan Murano was even worse. I had driven the RX 300 & it was quiet. Has anyone experienced a high noise level in their RX330? I'm thinking it is the tires. They are 18 inch Michelin X tires.

One thing to check is the tire pressure.
Make sure it isn't too high from shipping.

Check the alinement fast. I will not take delivery of any new vehicle until they check it. I have a 2004 330 w/Michelins and its quite as a mouse.
Best Regards..........Bob
