Quiet Tires
I was fortunate to have recently purchased a 2005 LS430. It came with the 18” wheels that I am replacing with a set of 17” OEM (6spoke)wheels. I’m looking for tires ( 225/55/17 ) that will give me the quietest and smoothest ride quality’s. I read others that are using Michelin Primacy MXV4 are very quiet but they are discontinued now. Has anyone tried its replacement the Premier A/S? I’m also considering Conti True Contact Tour. Although I’m in Massachusetts this car will never see snow so that isn’t a concern. Thanks for your suggestions.

Not sure why this is in the Build Thread section, but Conti's are pretty darn quiet. I am 1000+ miles into some Yokohama Avid Ascend LXs, which replaced a set of Premier A/S that I had, and I have no complaints. They were a touch louder until they got some miles on them, but have been really happy, especially since they were fairly cheap, and I was able to get a rebate on a promotion that Yokohama was running at the time.
