Suggestions for lowering tires and road noise?

[nguvanh]

Anyone notice those noises are bit high when driving on high or free way?
Can we change another type of tires to lower road noise?

short answer yes. Ive found the stock bridgestones to be pretty good about road noise but I have pirelli all seasons for winter and the road noise is less. I've also driven on some yokahama's where the road noice was way louder. So yes you can get tires with less road noise.

interesting as i have Yokohamas as my stock tires. they aren't too terribly loud but i'm not counting on them lasting 50k miles.
