Road noise with anything but Bridgestones?
I've read several threads about the road noise with the stock Bridgestone tires... I too am having this problem and considering purchasing new tires... I have almost 19k on my stock tires.
For anyone that have replaced their Bridgestones with another brand, how is the road noise? Is this the tire or the car?
Thanks!

I want to get some more wear out of the potenzas before they get pulled off.
At first I though I was having rearend problems but it was the tires I was hearing.

Noisy Bridgestones
I have it too with the Bridgestones. They are terribly noisy, especially at the rear end. I`m currently researching what to replace them with and will take a look at Michelin, Pirelli and Dunlop. I`ll never ever purchase Bridgestones again. The other issue is when they get reasonably worn, perhaps 60% or more, the front tires start to flit about all over the road. Even with perfect tire pressures, the front end mashes about all over the road as the tires meet differences in the road surface. This is particularly bad whilst stopping at lights and junctions. Ah well. The only solution is to purchase a better set of tires.
Good luck
