Road whine doesn't bother me at all, with all of the solid bushings I have on my car and the stiff suspension I dont even notice the harsh ride quality or the noise anymore.

a decent tire would prob. be the nitto DR that is going to be your best bet... i would love to have the 315 35 17 bfgoodrich KD's but those run for about 270 ea. but they have awesome tread life and hook almost like the nitto drag.

I've had smaller 245's and 275 BFG's and Kumos and both had horrible road wine... It drove me nuts. When I ordered my first set of Ebay wheels that came with the Sumi's I was amazed at the lack of noise. That put them at the the top in my book. Except for traction of course.
Have to agree... I have 275 BFG GForce sport and it sounds like I am drivin a rock crawler, weven with windows up. Grip nicely though.

I guess I should read the entire page before I post... sorry about that.
