Default 1998 SL2 - Snow tire noise with summer tires

We have a 1998 SL2 with 105,000 miles. We put snow tires on it last
fall for our kid's year at college. Now it's back and has summer
tires on it.

But now it sounds like there are coarse tread tires, it rumbles, with
pitch going up as speed goes up. Any ideas? It is loud enough to
need earplugs at highway speeds.

Thanks!
