I find the noise level of my '03 Aero to be quite acceptable, neither Lexus-silent nor Honda-loud (using an Odyssey and an Accord as comparisons). As the tires wear (Pirelli PZero Nero M&S) the level of road noise has increased, but they are relatively high performance tires and that's the trade-off. I just received my Dunlop M3 winter tires yesterday (haven't need them 'til now), so when I put them on I'll have a comparison.
Although I have no experience with Kumho tires, my hunch is they are the source of the noise. I would suggest contacting the Tire Rack or a trusted local tire dealer and tell them that your priority is to have a quiet tire, and I think that your problem will be solved.
