tires naturally get louder as they wear, but some get super loud just by design, or wearing on an angle especially if you have aftermarket suspension and alignment is at its limits.

v12's are non asymmetrical so they will wear on an angle more than the stock tires probably. asymmetrical tires usually have reinforcements on the inner tread to support cars with lots of negative camber like our Z's.

my advans have about 3/32-4/32 right now on the inner treads and they're not loud at all. my suspension is stock (factory alignment as well).

S04's are also quiet so far on my G. about 6/32.
