Not sure I fully believe the test results on the TireRack website, as I have other cars with these tires and the Hankooks seem to have much less road noise to me.

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.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I am considering a new set of tires for my 1999 C4 and have narrowed it down to either Hankook Ventus or Michelin Pilots. Believe it or not, I don't care about the handling or wear characteristics, just want the quietest tires. Not sure I fully believe the test results on the TireRack website, as I have other cars with these tires and the Hankooks seem to have much less road noise to me. Thanks for any thoughts.

POST 2Original post

Do a search here, on Rennlist and Renntech and I think that you will find that the general consensus is Michelin Super Sports. It's too bad that these are back ordered in some popular sizes. Cheers, Johan

POST 3Original post

Agree with Johan, I daily my Turbo on a set of Michelin Sports, while they set me back a cool $1,600+ they have impressed me again... I also have a set on my 951S but also use the BS RE-11, but only go there if you have the need otherwise you'll be replacing them quickly...
