I am having this exact same problem with my car. I bought my car a few months ago and the previous owner has the rear fender liner removed and possibly thought that I just don't have as much insulation and therefore here the same noise. The sound does sound rotational if that makes sense. It does sound like its coming from my tires, but I also just put on brand new tires on my car and got an alignment from Evasive a few months ago.

I don't think the S2k Ap1 or 2 have rear fender liners, You can buy aftermarket ones here https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/915...now-available/
I went with Sumitomo HTR Z3. The tires I had on my previous rims that came with the car were Nitto NT05 and they made the same noise as well. Which leads me to believe this noise is not coming from the tires. Something from the rear of the car is making this noise.

Have you done anything to investigate the noise?

No I havent. Just been dealing with it. Hahaha.
In about another 3,500 miles I am due for a 60k mile tune-up. I will have either Evasive or my friend (who works at Honda) check it out when I get my tune up. I hope its nothing major.

So it turns out for me it's my rear passenger wheel bearing that is creating all that cabin noise.

2. Kick him hard in the nuts for removing your rear fender liners.
3. Feel bad later when you find out that S2000s don't have rear fender liners.
