I am finding some road noise present in these kumho after a few thousand miles

I haven't noticed any road noise difference with the kumho tires from the stock firestones the truck came with...then again my 3rd gen has a pretty quiet cab. There's always going to be some road noise variations in spots on different pavement, and concrete surfaces. With the kumho's I like the traction on all surfaces, and conditions, especially hard cornering, yet their incredible ride smoothness. The truck always feels well planted, and predictable. I never got all that on the stock tires.
