It is a sound I have never heard with a vehicle before, almost as if the tires are translating every bit of road noise directly up into the frame/pedals/steering wheel and making a metallic vibrating/humming sound.
I honestly just want to hear from someone else that has a similar issue so that I know it is normal/abnormal, then I can try things like tire balancing, new tires, etc.
I will try and get something to take a better video and post it.

The vibrating metallic sound. To me it’s like a slight howl and not at all “road noise” you get with rubber on asphalt.
I have a GR86 I’m struggling with. I bought it Friday and switched the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires to the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S hoping for a difference yesterday and nothing.
I’m getting a strange resonating howling sound I’ve never heard before. People are saying it’s tires, but I’m convinced it is resonating noise traveling through various metal components and concentrating in random areas where the frequencies are super positioning. My next step is to have a dealer confirm other cars do it and start sound deadening. I seriously doubt the whole car needs it. I’m starting with the easiest areas to hit in the front area and going from there. My noise seems to come from the front driver area. I’m starting there. Absorbing noise in some random metallic surfaces may just stop it. We shall see.
