i donno know yet because my set isn't fully broken in and temps were low here and outside summer tire range. but even so they gripped pretty well.

i had 38psi when i drove it around last time and they felt good. (usually i run 37psi). current ET38 front 19x9 / ET15 rear 19x10.5 ... setup for straight line stability. i got no understeer when i drove it around last time though. nicely balanced.

Default Road Noise

Hello,

This is my first sports car. I really enjoy driving the car but noticed the harsh road noise when driving on different surfaces in my area. I initially bought some sound deadening material and this help reduce some of the noise. I'm now thinking about a tire change to reduce some more of the cabin noise. I need some help with maybe changing my tires. Right now they have Yokohama Sport tires. I have read that Continental DW tires are good or Hankook v12s. Do any of you have any advise to change the tires to a more quiet ride. I know this is a z and not a G37. I may have made a mistake for the type of ride I wanted to get but it's to late to go back now.
