Default Noise problem HELP!!??

Lately, when I'm driving my car makes a noise like theres a nail in the tire. The tires have each been taken off the car and been inspected for nails and nothing. I also checked underneath to see if maybe there was something loose but nothing. Also put air in the tires and it still manages to make this noise... The noise kinda sounds like that riveted gravel on the break down lanes to wake ur *** up but not *** loud. Can anyone help me out with this mystery noise? Its driving me nuts!! (turning up the stereo only helps for so long too)
