Default 09 Accord Noise from front end

I just purchased a 2009 Honda Accord. It has 60k miles on it. As i was driving it home I noticed a noise coming from the front of the car. When I test drive the car, I did not get up to any speed above 45mph. Now when I get up to about 60 mph I get a slight shutter in the steering wheel. It sounds like a lot of tire noise. I jacked up each wheel by itself and checked for wheel bearings. I can't feel any drag or movement in any tire. The noise is like a low humming sound. the faster I go it does not change the sound but I do get a lot more vibrations from the steering wheel. I looked at all the tires, nothing stands out that's wrong. Any suggestions as what to do from here.

Sounds like tire noise from worn/noisy tires. Fix is new tires. I'm living w/ a set of tires on 2006 Acura TSX that came w/ new noisy tires. I don't know if I can go 30-40 K miles w/o replacing. Fortunately my wife drives it mostly.

good l uck
