Tire noise - Pirelli Scorpions - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I'm wondering if anyone else gets a lot of tire noise with these? This only seems to happen when the tires warm up and/or the outside temp is above 60 degrees. It is worse when turning. As long as it's cold the tires are quiet.

I haven't noticed it, but It hasn't been above 60 much since I put the tires on. I've only noticed a loss of dry pavement traction so far.

I've had my Scorpions on for about a week. The first few days the temps were in the high 50's and I didn't notice any noise. Now it's in the low 30's and still no noise--except I have noticed some howling type of noise when turning, but never thought it might be the tires--thought it was coming from the differential clutches. The tires have good traction in the snow, but any snow over 6-7 inches gets plowed by my GFX front splitter.

I hear mine more on concrete versus ashpalt and cornering/turning on concrete is the worst it gets. I'm pretty sure it's the tires, because it started immediately after swapping out the wheel/tire combo.
