I had these tires put on as as replacement for OEM KDWs. Intitially I was very happy with road noise (the description of "stealth" is appropriate). Recently replaced tie rod end (hence the alignment) about 2500mi ago. Last 1000 or so miles has seen an exponential increase in road noise. It gotten unbarable, just like Nathan described above. For example, an empty pop can in the driver's side cupholder resonates so much I can't hear the radio at normal listening levels. This sound is terrible! I have only 6 months on these tires and I got over 3 years out of my KDWs--so I don't want to replace them. Anybody have any ideas? I thinking I should complain to Yokohama or Discount tire--I would rather have my worn KDWs back at this point...



Um.. I think that they wore one way with the alignment you had now its making noise wearing off the way they are sitting. You may want to have your tow checked.
