My Koleos that I got this week seems to suffer from high noise levels regarding tire noise. At any speed over 45 km/h is really is noisy. All else is so quiet and nice, including the engine and exhaust note. The tire noise therefore stands out like a sore thump. Could it be incorrect tire pressures or even incorrect wheel alignment? Or is the brand of tire the biggest culprit? Its got 225/60/17 tires.
Its got less than 6 months worth of thread left. What tires are recommended that will reduce tire noise?
