I had a pair of Hankook Ventus Evo S run flats on the rear of mine. They were fine (apart from being run flats and kinda hard).

I have to say though that some tyre combinations just don't work. My last car was a X-Type Jag 3.0se and I drove quite a few whilst looking for the right one. Some of the ones I drove sounded terrible. It was just as you described, just like a wheel bearing or worse on the AWD Jag, a transfer box issue. I'm sure it was tyre noise but it put me off buying.
