Road Noise when Slowing down

I have a '05 G35 Coupe and when I slow down I seem to be getting alot of road noise. Is this typical or do I have something out of whack you think?

Thanks!

Its either your tires or you may need an alignment.

Or you could have a slightly bent rim causing uneven tire wear.

now that you mention that I actually had replaced a rim in the front right from clipping a curb, the repair shop that did it said the alignment was fine but it seems to pull to the right (same side we replaced the wheel on) so i think you might be right about the alignment. Ill take it somewhere else next time...Thanks guys!

Tire aging will cause increased road noise. As the tread blocks wear down, the designed-in frequency effect to reduce tread noise degrades.
