i knew about the wheel noise prior to buying the car-drove 2 or 3 and it's audible as soon as you accelerate from a stop. i don't have ANY issues with the engine sound-that's frickin' awesome..... the 'ride' ie suspension is tight and focused, like a superior handling car should have so: engine sound,ride=good, wheelnoise=not so good. i find the car really sings at about 80 - 90 mph. it's like the aerodynamics result in the perfect road contact at those speeds. this i've noticed on the 'freeway'..... i don't track the car. but candidly if i didn't have to hear every pebble and raindrop i'd be a bit happier. i too enjoy music (why i bought a touring model-killer stereo) but i'd like to be able to use my ears in 5 or 10 years. wheel noise + sunno)) = deafness sooner than later.
so is this dynamat product a good approach to dampening the wheel noise?
thanks r
