Unhappy Odd noise .....

I'm getting an odd, low groaning noise from the rear of my 03 WRX having done a fast run on the motorway / cross country run.
- Funnlily enough - it doesn't do it all the time, and is silent from cold.

My immediate thought was rear diff / wheel bearings - but it's only done it since I had a Whiteline rear arb fitted. The rear drop links (non Whiteline) sit very close to the wishbone / bottom link .....

Any ideas / experiences much appreciated ..

What tyres are you running? I have the same problem, got the car booked in and they checked it over. Turned out the RE070's i run with a prone to road noise...
