Didn't find anything much with a search so here goes, 2007 C6 with the stock Goodyear Eagles. There is A LOT of road noise with them so for everyday driving (nothing special) what is a good tire that will be fairly quite? Thanks for the help

I'm running Bridgestone RE-11's on my Z. However they are not run flats.

I previously had Bridgestone RE050A Pole Positions RFT. They were much much louder, rode very stiff due to the RFT's stiff sidewalls and had less grip than the RE-11's.

I carry a plug kit (had to use it already in the first 500 miles), compressor, tool kit and a can of Slime Quick Spair. I just need to find a small jack low enough and I'm set for most tire repairs

"Quiet" tires............

i ignore it as you would have to sacrifice the run flats something i am not about to do... I too have less than two year old Eagle F1 EMT's and they roar like none other lol

Nitto Invo's....non-RF

I'm quite perplexed with your question.

Those Invos are quite quiet tires.

They also sell products to reduce the interior noise, like Dynamat and other mats that can install under or over the carpet areas. Many report very good results doing that.

Here where I live in Florida, the road surfaces are so "rough" (to allow for the rain to get off the surfaces quickly, all tires are pretty noisy.

I can hear the tires on my wife's caddy.....

I switched to Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus ZP Run Flats on my 2013 C6 coupe. They are much quieter than the original Goodyears, even on the rough roads in Florida.

you are driving on the car's original tires?

I think all RFs are going to be more noise than non-RFs. My Firestone RFs are significantly quiter than than the OEMs.

Michelin Pilot Sport A/S ZP. They have the lowest road noise of any modern Corvette tire I've experienced.

New tires. All new tires are going to be much "quiter" than older tires. All tires get harder as they get older and harder tires are noisier than softer tires. They also lose traction when old. Since getting old is a slow process you don't notice the changes. Buy any new tire and there is an instant change.

Runflats have a stiffer sidwall so they are inherently going to produce a little more noise but any old non-RF is going to make more noise than a new RF. It isn't the tire as much as it is the age.
