Rover did quite a good job of the original soundproofing but of course they fitted good quality tyres.---Some replacement tyres can make quite a lot of noise from the off.---
Hi Jon, I looked for quiet tyres and found Michelin all climate tyres were quiet. On the downside they can aquaplane in wet weather. Despite that I was thinking of getting some.
Which tyres are quiet and also have good grip? Thanks.
