Goodyear F1 A/S owners, question

I'm requested some feedback from anyone running GY F1 A/S tires. I have a new noise and am thinking it is my tires. The noise sounds like driving on a dry road with your window down and then run through some water that has run across the road. The noise the water under the tires makes.

But this noise happens to me on dry roads when I put a good load on the car, moving out pretty fast and have my window down and a wall or curb or something to reflect the sound back is on my left side. The instant I lift the throttle, the noise stops.

This only happens when driving, not reving the engine alone. Has anyone else heard this sort of sound from these tires?

YD

You can also check with your local Goodyear garage if they have noticed this noise before.
