What tires do you have installed currently?

what he said !!?? They must be really old, or really hard, maybe time for some new tires, also if you are using 16" wheels maybe go down to a 15" size with more sidewall meat, it will cushion the ride and quiet things down a bit.

I made the switch from federal 595 evo's with around 1000 miles to Bridgestone rivals and the rivals are noticeably quieter which is surprising . Maybe look at some Yokohama s drives?
