Strange humming

I just replaced the tires on my 2002 9-5 Aero Wegon at 53K. Took off the horrid Riken Raptors that came with the car and installed Yokohama Avid H4S tires. Shop did a complete alignment.
Now, I'm hearing a resonating-type hum at speed (typically 65 to 80mph). It comes and goes at about a 6 to 8 second interval, varies with speed.
I returned the car to the tire shop and they rebalanced the tires and said that the wheel bearings felt okay. They surmised it was in the transaxle (it's a manual transmission). It's possible that the car was doing this before and I didn't notice, but the Rikens, though loud, were not THAT loud.
Anyone have this issue? Inner drivers, perhaps?
Thanks - JMJ
