New Tire, Whirring Sound

I was driving (2020 GLC) and hit a low concrete median and got an immediate flat (Pirelli AS, non-run flat, bought Nov 2025). Passenger front. No other visible damage. Brought the car to Canadian Tire (had no choice as this is where roadside could tow) and got a brand new tire (same brand ofc). Drives fine, no pulling to one side, no vibrations, no shaking, no issues with turning or steering, no sounds - except there is a rhythmic whirring noise once I reach 70KM/h+. It’s not loud but noticeable enough. Also, once I got this car on the highway, the tire pressure sensor goes off. Any idea what this issue is before I call? This woman was trying to tell me “the tire went on fine and was able to be balanced” when I asked if there was damage to the rim and mentioned “sometimes we think after we got something fixed we psych ourselves out and look for things that are wrong with the car.” So I already know this is going to be an uphill battle.
