Sound of wind?

Do any of you guys get the sound of wind coming from the corners of the doors? there isn't any air entering the car but the sound is apparent at 75 MPH if the car is quiet.

I believe that is the differential making the noise.

I haven't noticed that on my car.

You may consider "treating" the window seals, to help make them more pliable.

I removed the weather strip and put it back on, it did not help.The noise was still the same, its not a huge issue but it is something that I think about when im driving on the freeway. the good news is if you want to ignore it just turn your radio on
