tire noise?? help (archive)

I aslo posted this on the tire forum but like your input to
Hi guys
i own a 325i (built in 11/93)
Last year i bought some honeycomb 15 in bmw rims with toyo proxes 225-50-15v to be my summer tires. I bought these/rims tires from another 1994 325
owner.

For the winter i was using 205-60-15 dunlop graspics on my original 15 bmw rims which worked well.

this weekend i put the toyo/honey comb bmw rims on and the car makes this loud howling (like a wolf) noise...it started right after the installation. there is no
rubbing but the noise is really irritating.The car sorta pulls to the left as well. Braking is fine. No shudder or decrease in braking ability At 85 mph the radio is
getting close to 3/4 max
.I am looking at the tires as the culprits...
I could honestly care less bout the nosie, but is this DANGEROUS!!. If so I'll be calling the tire rack tommorrow and get some 205/60/15...contitourings??

Advice would be helpful. Thanks
