T1S, Azenis... or any of the Michelin Energy line... Don't buy Dunop or anything with large treads. Smaller blocks of rubber are quiter. I got an idea... why not invest in some Dynamat?

I had Yokohama Avid T4's on my old EL. They are a performance all season tire. I found they were absolutely silent, unlike the noisy Hankook's I had before.

I have Yokohama Parada Spec-2 right now for summer.. and they're quite loud...

Comparing Michelin Arctic Alpins... my winter tires.. they were absolutely silent! It was a great ride!

I got the Michelin X1 and they are pretty quiet. Much better than the Firestones that came with the car.
