Looking for a quite set of Tires… please provide recommendations…
Folks – am locking for a 4 season – quite set of tires … the current once (Yokohama V4s) are terrible to say the least … its like driving a truck…
The previous owner had Continentals on it.. when I got the car they were about 50% worn….
Anyway, I am going to also get advise what the Dealer recomments

Your Yokohamas are High Performance all season. Get a set of Grand Touring All Seasons like the Michelin Primacy MXV4 or Bridgestone Turanza Serenity. I have used the Energy MXV4 (older version of Primacy) and Primacy on my cars (not LS). I highly recommend the Primacy. Costco for the best price on Michelins.
My LS came with Dunlop Signatures and they aren't that great.

These can be generalized but sometimes car set-up will change the characteristics of how quiet a tire may be. The Michelin MXV4 I had were reasonably quiet but the traction left much to be desired at 225/60-16. I drove them 30K miles and dumped them. I think there are quieter and better traction models for all season.
I've driven FWD cars with Yokohama V and H4's...they were very quiet. I have a few buddies with them and likewise, it is quiet. Of course as tires age, they become louder. It is a gamble but you can get a good baseline from the reviews.

What year/model car are you driving?
The Goodyear Assurance line may be right up your alley. In OH, I would go with the TripleTread. I will be on my next tire purchase. I currently have the ComforTread and I love it, but it just isnt as good in the snow as I would like, and where I live, we get ALOT of it.
