The engine is probably stressed under load. The engine is designed to cruise at 2500 rpm, so it doesn't have a whole lot of power at that low rpm. All the engine is doing is bogging down as it gets enough power. Perfectly normal.

His post is worded in way that makes you think that the "questionable noise" dissappears after the change From stock Tires to the bigger tires...
that is... unless he mis-worded his original post...
