Neova AD07 noise problem

anyone had experience with the AD07 noise level. they are so much noisier than the stock tires(yokohamma DB series). In australia, the GT model comes with some cheap yokohama db tires. but they were very quiet.

just got the ad07 fitted on some new work wheels and found them they be atleast twice as noisy. cant even hear my music without cranking volume half way

yep.. you got yokohama Db tyres before.. the Db stands for decibel, and those tyres are designed the be the quietest tyres you can buy.

of course any other tyre is going to be noisier. its a tradeoff.

You just need to take more corners at high speed so you forget about the noise as you'll be having lots of fun since the AD07s are super sticky! They come on the Lotus Elise as standard and I thought they were amazing tires. Just put some sound dampening in your car like one of the threads on here show, then it will be much quieter.
