2009 370Z, original Yokohama tires. Incredibly noisy inside on anything but totally smooth asphalt, mostly tire noise. Anybody have experience with quieter tires out there that will still handle?

Try the RE-11's, not too shabby. I just got the rears put on not too long ago,

Btw its a small two seater sports car, a noisy cabin is almost normal.

You won't get the somewhat peaceful atmosphere as you would with something like an Infiniti G or BMW 3 series, etc.

I got the RE-11's on the front of my TT, and I love them. They don't make a 245/45/16 though, so I'm SOL in that aspect. Looks like I'll be upgrading wheels next time I do tires.

I've heard good things about Conti's new Extreme Contact DW and they'll fit your Z. It's what I plan on using once I find a decent set of Rays G35 wheels for my Z33.
