Noisy Rear End

Does anyone else notice a whining noise from their rear end? I noticed it when I switched from my more aggressive winter wheels to my summer 22's. It is more noticeable at lower speeds where road noise cannot drown it out..

After noticing it I changed my differential fluid. The level was optimal before changing and the fluid looked good. I also replaced my rear pads and rotors with no change. I ran the truck on a lift to make sure it wasn't road noise from my tires too.
IDK if it's always been overly noisy and I'm just focused on it now or what. Any insight?

Well I think time has come that I replace my rear diff bearings. I’m at 117k miles and getting a whine noise. Replaced fluid as well. You end up doing the same?
