Did the vibration BEGIN when the new tires were put on?

Did you have them Road Force Balanced?

from the title of this thread, I was expecting something different

If the vibration is at a certain speed but less noticeable at an even higher speed, it could be a minor bend in a wheel or the new tires need to be road force balanced.

There is another thread like this where a lot of people chimed in. has a similar title. Worth searching. I think there was no definitive answer tho.

I had the exact same thing and it was a bad wheel bearing. Try seeing if it goes away or gets louder in left or right turns, that way you can isolation which side of the car has the issue.
