Why do I hear a growling noise when my 2002 ford xlt explorer is in motion.?

My explorer recently developed a growling noise when the vehicle is in motion. It has approximately 35500 miles. The tires were worn and I thought that may have been the problem, but I replaced all four and can still hear the sound.
