Sorry to be the bringer of bad news, but there isn't much you can do but get a new set of tires.
Just keep in mind next time that you get what you pay for...and in this case, I don't think you paid enough by choosing that specific brand of tires. I suggest going with Michelin, Toyo, or Yokohama if you want less noise.

Lexfreak....
edit.... found out that the Azenis is designed for sport luxury
IT has capsules in the rubber compound specifically designed
to absorb road noise..it has huge rain grooves to disperse water
and is the best wet weather tire i have seen...
Thats why i found it quieter than the 512..
It is also an all season although the 512 is
getting all the hype in that category...
Note ... I thought my buddy's 512's on his TT Supra are a better
racing (handling tire) but noisier...
jus my .02cents bro

What are the treadwear, traction & temperature ratings for the 115's blk? They don't look like they would handle snow very well when comparing both the 115's & 512's tread patterns.
