I dont know how you fix ride noise without new tires but if you want a smooth ride with hardly any raod noise Falken 452s

 

Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Pole Position FTMFW

 

as long as you dont by the god awful bridgestones that came on my o6 touring they only lasted 25000 miles and were really loud

 

Wait a second. Is the noise coming front the front? Does it sound like a washing machine on spin? Are you certain that the front tires are not feathered?

 

Edit. Rear tire alignment is not typical. Last place that I would look for a problem. Photos are helpful.

 

Sound really sounds like it is coming from the back. I'll take a pic of the rear tire tonight.

Front tires look good.

 

Drivers Side Rear:


Passenger Side Rear:


They aren't the same tire but the passenger side shows that there is no inside wear on the tire.

 

Doesn't like like a major problem, still, I recommend a rear alignment.

 

Any other comments? What do I need to do here? Is this rear tire giving me the loud ride?

 

Honestly, passenger rear is your problem.

That is a Yokohama AVS ES-100 by the looks of it am i correct?

Horribly noisy tires... You have no idea how loud they are until you upgrade to better tires, trust me on this.

On my old Celica I had these all around, and the noise was HORRIBLE.

 

Is your driver rear a Nitto NT555???

 

Once more... do not worry about getting alignments done or anything. Get rid of that ES100 and your loud/horrible ride will be over.

 

I believe the stock Bridgestones are the RE040 tires.
RE040 = Teh Suck


Falken 452, Nitto NT555, Michelin PS2, Toyo T1R, Bridgestone RE050A PP.

These are all excellent tires.

 

Driver Rear is Nitto NT555 that is going bald on the inside. Passenger rear is the Yokohama ES100.

 

TurboTrey. Get rid of the ES100. That's your problem.

Your spare tire will even be quieter than it. Try it.

 

If your front tires are fine, just get a new PAIR for the rears.

 

ugh, nittos, ugh. for every 1 happy owner it seems as though there is 1 unhappy owner. not a good ratio if you ask me.

 

Wow, and I was actually thinking about just getting an alignment and a new AES 100 for the other side.

 

ES100's are disappointing. The sound they produce when on all 4 corners of a car is horrendous. Similar to a whirring, hurricane-like sound? Annoying..

 

the better question is why are you running 2 different tires on the back of the car? why would you expect it to be anything but loud? You have two of the loudest tires out there (555 and ES100), and you have them mismatched to boot, so it's no wonder the car generally feels and sounds crappy, Plus, both of those tires are shot per the pictures - they both need to go. You're also getting very uneven wear, which is where the SPC rear camber/toe kit will be a necessary thing for you. Install this BEFORE you buy new tires, and have a 4 wheel alignment done immediately after you install your new tires

do yourself a favor, invest in a proper set of tires (search on here there are tons of reviews), get an alignment, and do it right the first time from here on out...you'll save yourself alot of grief
