Quiet Tires?

scottIN · 03-11-2016, 04:27 PM

I remember seeing a thread once about a good riding, quiet tire, but can't find it now.

Looking for something quiet, summer only (parked in the winter) to slap on my Sport Rays. I only put about 7K a year on the car (finally wore the OE out last year at 21K). Mostly just DD use, so I'm not looking for anything super grippy or amazing in the handling department. More quiet & good ride. And really only want to spend around $900+ install
Suggestions?

MPSS, quiet and treadwear of 300, perfect for DD, not sure of cost

Actually our cars,use what tyres also not really quiet,first thing is the width & the low profile,this already make alot of noises louder.

Good luck on getting the PSS. They are on back order for 2 month minimum. All new sports cars are using them now and they can't keep up demand
