I could be wrong, but I suppose if you had the car on a lift and dropped
the car hard, compressing the suspension past the weak shocks to the bump
stops that are missing the rubber bumpers so the wheel bearings take the
hit.

Are you sure it's not the new tires making a droning noise different from
the old tires?
