Question NT05 owners notice alot more road noise than the stock pirelli's?

Finallly mounted and balanced my Nitto NT05's, put some 9" wheels up front so I can run 275/40/20 all the way around and damn they seem a lot louder..I dont mind it as long as its normal..

Anyone else notice this?..all the reviews Ive seen said they are more quiet..

What PSI are you running yours?

NT05 tires grip well, but are very noisy on the road. That is the main reason I recommend the Nitto INVO tires instead.

I had an accident and had some major repairs, in the midst of the repairs i had the NT05's installed...so like normal you feel paranoid about every sound when you get your car back..especially after a month..and throw new tire sounds on top of that haha..the tire shop messed up a valve stem first time they gave it back and I made it 2 blocks and had 10 psi left to add more the the discomfort..

Just wanted to kill my paranoia..I dont mind the noise as long as its normal..so the input is appreciated!

No problem. Check out their site at www.NittoTire.com and you'll see they rate the NT05 noisy. The Invo tires are the most quiet.
