Stretching the tire, like rotating, causes the tire to run on areas it's not used to running on, so that'll definitely cause noise until the tires get used to it. And higher psi will cause noise as well. 35/34 is great, run that for a few weeks and see how it is. If it's still noisy, drop it to 33/32. A lot of guys run those pressures anyway for a bit softer ride and more grip.

Thanks for your responding and for the suggestion. It seems that the stretch is the only logical reason.
