I think most of the noise come from the tire. It also depends on the type of road surface.
9-5 apperas to have very good cabin insulation from the wind and engine noise. Take Acura CL for example, at 65MPH+ with sun shade (not the glass sun roof) open, I can hear slightly higher wind noise coming through the roof than with the shade closed. With 9-5, there is no difference.
I also think the tire noise depends largely on the type of road surface. At certain segments of highway 5, the noise level is extremely low. It is so low that my dog's snooring starts to bother me. At other segments, it is true that it becomes noiser than other cars in the same class.
