Cabin noise

Does the second skin material go between the car frame and the interior carpeting?

Get new tires. The OEM tires are INCREDIBLY LOUD. Not that I'd expect anything less from Bridgestone, but at least they grip the road. Dont weigh your car down with sound deadening materials.

If you have the sport package with the 19" wheels, you have the Bridgestone Potenza RE050A's. According to tirerack, they are in the middle of the field of "max" performance summer tires and the road noise is the same. If the noise is really a concern, switch to the Continental extreme contact DW's which are significantly better noise wise than any other performance tire.

That's the set I used to replace my stock tires. Worked wonders! I recommend it to anyone concerned about road noise.

This thread astounds and amazes.

It is a sports car. Want noise? Come out to Sac and i will give you a ride in my 71 240. Want a nice quiet ride? Borrow your Mom's Camry.

I agree with you on that to some extent. Why buy a sports car if you want something quiet

I agree with Jessobear, the OEM tires have gotten terrible reviews regarding the noise levels. If possible, swap them out for Michelin Pilot Sports, great tire, great ride and much more quiet. You would think that Nissan would change their tires out after all the complaints regarding the Bridgestones.

Ya, 30 lbs is really going to slow down a 3000 lb + car.

I agree about the tire noise. Anyone with a suggestion on quieter tires?

Hankook V12's seem to be what a lot of folks suggest for quieter quality tires. There is a discussion over in wheel and tires, if you do a search for "quiet tires" you will see a few discussion over just this.

Im just gonna use a bed comfortor and wrap it around the spare tire. See if that improves anything.
