Tires.....what's your opinion?

My Z has Bridgestone tires and the ride is kinda loud. Is that the tires or the nature of the beast? What tires do you like the best?

A bit of both in my opinion. I replaced my tires with Michelin's on my '09 coupe and was much happier with the reduction in tire noise.

Stock Tires aren't that bad. The car has no sound deadening insulation. Find a quieter road!
