this thread... lol

hey 370zproject- you referring to the falken when you say 452? i HATED those junk tires. if you want touring type tire and quiet, i suggest the conti-DW's minimum.

dont degrade your car by running junk tires.

I agree, the continental DWs are supposed to be one of the most quet tires you can get for the car.

if he wants it any quieter, some sound deadening material for the floorboard and hatch area may be necessary.

I have 452 on my new wheels, they are loud but not to much a concern for me. I was more worried about cost since I eat up rear tires quicker then usual (20s and dropped)

452's dont stick worth a damn for a performance tire imho (from actual experience on another car). the DW's stick well. it's a softer (and quiet) ride too so perfect for touring.
