Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

I knew I would be replacing the rears and did so yesterday with exactly the same RE050A's.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1Original post

I just bought a 2007 Cayman 2.7 with 26k miles. The rear tire tread depth was at 2.8mm left and 2.2mm right (fronts at 6mm and 5.5mm). When I finally drove the car, 860 miles worth to home, I was a bit surprised at the noise level. I knew I would be replacing the rears and did so yesterday with exactly the same RE050A's. I had my fingers crossed that they would be better because I didn't want to commit to a different brand. They are much much better but there is no doubt that some noise remains. As others have said, I think this comes with the territory. Also, as others have said, they are very sensitive to different road surfaces as far as noise is concerned. All in all, considering the good ratings/opinions on the Bridgestones, I consider the noise acceptable and a huge improvement over a worn tire. C.

New street tires are almost universally quieter than well-worn ones, regardless of brand.
