Noisy 19's
So I did some searchin didn't find anything... I'm sure this has been discussed B4.
Are all low profile tires that are streched a bit noisy? This partucular situation I'm lookin at is 265/30 (I think)/19 on a 9.5 rim tires are falken452... I've had low profile tires on rims before but never streched...
So if there is a thread discussin this please piont me in the right direction it would be much appreciated

My 19" is actually quieter than the Lexus OEM 18" Dunlop SportMaxx. Will see how long will it be last.
