Bridgestones are loud too. I think it's the turanza is the quiet one.

Heard those are quiet. Those are more for comfort rather than sport.

Falken FK452, Niton INVO, and Nitto 555 have all worked well for me and dont break the bank when you are rolling a car thats dropped and it goes through tires every 17K. I still cant complain. My G35 went through tires every 12K

no love for Continentals?

Ive used continental extreme's and they are still my favorite, just recently got 18's and went with the new Continetal DWS, very soft ride for everyday all season tires. Compared to the 2 the DWS are softer and less road noise than the original extremes.
