Did you only rotate them front and back, or did you switch sides also? If you switched sides, try puting them back on the original sides. If not, the noise could just be because of the new tread feel (your front tires will now have a flatter stance while the rears are now slightly roundes), in which case the noise should go away soon, assuming you rotate your tires at least every 7,000.

If the noise doesn't go away soon, you could get them rebalanced. I think some places recommend that anyway, although I've never had to with mine.
