Just had a thought. The car they came from was a written off GTI. Middle engine front end damage. Could it be flat spots on the tyres from the braking during the crash?

How do I check for flat spots?

You'd feel flat spots more than anything...I imagine it must be the tyres or the tyres have worn unevenly - possibly. Maybe it's normal and the wider tyres just make more noise.
