Annoying sound from rims and tires..plz help!

Hi, i just installed E430 17x7.5 ET37 rims on my W124 4Matic...looks great, good clearrance but the only problem is when i drive up to 20mph a annoying sound from tires start...u can hear the tires rotating...this sound stops around 25 mph and begins again around 40...then stop about nother 10mph higher....wut is the reason for this?? Is it harming my braking system??? should i remove these rims and put back my stock ones??? plz help!!!

BTW the tires are 235/45/17 Pirelli P7000 Supersports...i think the 2 rear ones are about a little more than half a year old and the front ones are about 2 or 3 years old...also the noise occurs at 20mph regardless of the pavement...noise isnt metallic but i am afraid the rim might be rubbing against the rotors or anything else...maybe this will help
