O.K., I replied at the wrong place I believe. I've never done this before. Sorry. When my 97 Malibu started having problems with tire noise at 13,000 miles, the tires had to be switched after being rotated. Now at 19,000 miles the noise was worse than ever after having the tires rotated and the dealership told me it was the "Affinity" tire and they needed to be replaced. We called Firestone and they told us it was either the balance or the alignment that was off. And by the way, we did check the inflation in our tires, and it was correct. Have you had any problems with your Malibu?
