searching the internet about this tire i came up with its a very sticky tire and wet performance is good too but its damn noisy. can u guys comment? it seems most hipo tires are noisy or get noisy as they wear so i guess its expected. music is usually cranked up so i wouldnt hear any tire noise.

hows the treadwear (how many miles are u getting) and does it tramline?

I put the tire on my car this spring. I've put about 400 miles on the so far, I haven't noticed any tread wear yet. It is a very sticky tire and the noise of the tire is there but on a scale of 1-10, 10 being my BFG mudders on my truck I would give the KDW's a 6. Just get the tire screw the noise you'll love them.

Any good Ultra Performance tire will be noisy. Just the nature of the beast. The beast being big, solid blocks of tread. Gotta love em!

KDWs are very noisy, I have two of them, and BF Goodrichs on front, I hate my KDWs.

Get headers and finish the rest of your exhaust and then don't worry about how loud your tires are.
