I thought I had something loose at first and got my car on a lift to check everything out and found nothing amiss. I also had the dealer look at it (I take my car in for a free inspection every 3 months) and they too found nothing.

It is a definite clunk-type sound -- not very loud, but definitley there. Could it be tires? Unknown. Maybe. who knows.
I get this too, even with my all seasons. I notice it more on days when it is a wet cold day. Goes away once warmed up, as you've noticed. I chalk it up to the endless list of "Yep, it's normal" noises.
