I would be interested to see what you found out. I have a 2001 Boxster S with around 15K miles on it. I've had the same issue with a lower pitched humming noise. The higher the speed, the louder it gets. I took it to a Porsche Specialy shop and they said it was bad bearings on both rear wheels. I had them replaced ($$$) and it seemed for a while like it was better, but now it's back. : (

Please let me know if you ever found a solution. Maybe it is just the tires....
