Default loud noises

I have a 6th gen sedan.

Recently..my car has been makin a lot of noise. I am not talkin about loud exhaust/intake noise (its both stock). Its like "road" noise if you will...I can mostly hear it during high speeds (over 40 mph) Im thinkin its the tires makin loud noises. Or maybe the axles spinning but whatever the noise is...it sounds like its something that spins. ? But whatever it is..I want my car to be more "quiet" like it used to be from the factory. My car is a 1998 so I dont know if its possible to make it more quiet.

I also have low profiles tires 215/40/17 and dropped on tein basics. Im thinkin its something that have to do with the tires makin loud noises. anyone help me plz?

yes perhaps its because of both the drop and the different tires you have, what ive noticed with my cars is that the stock quietness is never attainable unless you stick with the stock suspension and the tires the car came with, its one of those things, after some time, you tend to lose the new feeling, it happens!

check for uneven wear on the tires or maybe your tires are worn out
