The infamous rear window wind noise, or just tire noise?

Hey guys, I there is a lot of noice coming from the back of the car at cruising speeds. I don't quite know what that wind noise tsb sounds like, it sounds like a mix of tire and wind noise, but def pretty loud and noticable. Anyideas? Is it the windnoise TSB problem? I thought they resolved it in the 03's?

Does it sound like you have a window cracked open and air is flowing through?

i guess only way to find out, tape up the windows and see if it improves, although it seems more like a `shoooooing' sort of noise as if it is the tire/road noise. Either way I doubt it should be there cuz its quite significant.

It helps to give them the link if they don't have it.

yeah just deal with the TSB and see if it helps, overall, it cant hurt because its extremely cheap and easy to do, and if it doesnt do anything, you will know that its your tires
