    Got these tyres on the front of my everyday car.
    Sounds like a bearing away but beginning to suspect the tyres (pressures ok).
    Noise is very audible from 45mph onwards and get a slight vibration under hard acceleration...it's doing my head in. Had car checked out by a reputable garage. Has anyone had these tyres and experienced similar issues?

    Get your tyres balanced properly.

    Could still be the wheel bearing/s sometimes they are a bit of a bugger to diagnose I've had a few go with no play at all and you can hardly tell when spinning the wheel by hand until you've driven on it longer and it gets worse.
