I have a GR86 I’m struggling with. I bought it Friday and switched the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires to the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S hoping for a difference yesterday and nothing.
I’m getting a strange resonating howling sound I’ve never heard before. People are saying it’s tires, but I’m convinced it is resonating noise traveling through various metal components and concentrating in random areas where the frequencies are super positioning. My next step is to have a dealer confirm other cars do it and start sound deadening. I seriously doubt the whole car needs it. I’m starting with the easiest areas to hit in the front area and going from there. My noise seems to come from the front driver area. I’m starting there. Absorbing noise in some random metallic surfaces may just stop it. We shall see.

Sounds like I have finally found someone that is hearing the same thing I am. You are the first to describe it like I hear it. Switching to the DWS 06's is my last resort. If that does not fix it, then to me, it is an inherent flaw to the car that I will not be able to deal with and will have to sell the car. Such a shame too, as everything else is perfect about it. The normal road noise does not bug me in the least bit, just that damn metallic howling sound because it is so unnatural.
