Question Weird Noise at high speeds

Last weekend I was on the highway and everytime i went past 100 there was a really loud squeaking/ sqealing type of noise. I couldnt tell where it was coming from?

Im guessing its either from the wheels (rims?, i have the standard 18s) or the windows somewhere ? I check if all the windows were shut properly which they were.

The noise went away at like 130+ but everytime i passed 100 it started again?

Has this happened to anybody else? What could it be?

I hope i dont have to take my car in till the next service in 2000 mi.

Were there flashing lights in your rear view mirror? If so, I think I know where the sqealing was comming from....

Could it have been wind noise from the side mirrors?

I thought I read on here that the 08 and 09 mirrors caused
wind noise at high speeds and thats why the 2010 mirrors
were redesigned.

I could be wrong though.

I have an 09 and did multiple mile runs at around 170mph and never noticed any loud squealing noises.
