Default Kuhmo Noise

Does anyone have Kuhmo's on their car? I just installed their Extreme performance tires and am getting some noise especially at high speeds. I am wondering if it is my wheel bearing or tires(just replaced the passenger front an maybe the driver front is bad as well). Are the stock F1's really quiet when compared to the Kuhmo's?

Another question: is it me or do these tires SUCK for traction under 65 deg. F?

Kuhmos are a little loud, I noticed mine quieted down when they got around 1k miles on them.
