whistle sound from rims?

anybody ever heard about a whistling sound coming from rims. I have a 2005 i inherited from my brother with 18" icw rims. ( i think the kobe model). past 30 mph it makes a whistling sound, especially from the rear. now im not a car person in the slightest. are the rims too large or something, dont know. any help would be appreciated.
thanks.
Edit:
I use to have the stock tires and when i would put those on, no noise. (id be using those right now, but one day i go home and he sold them lol)

Re: whistle sound from rims?
it may be the tires, they are known to make all sorts of noises depending on how they wear and the tread pattern.
