Tyre noise

Tyre noise

AOA

Last month I got the delivery of my XLi (Alhamdulillah). When Idrove it off from the show room, I felt that the wheels were making too much sound (my santro was much quieter). I thought the sound would go away as I was going to change the tyres anyway.

After a couple of days I changed the rims + tyres to Dulop Eco 195/65-R15. Now the problem is that although the grip has improved quite a lot and the ride is also comfy, but I still get the same sound while the car is moving. I hava also observed that the sound seems to be more in the morning while I am going to office than while I am coming back (but that may be my misconception).

After all this background, my question now is that is the sound coming from the dunlops? Should i change them to Yokohama C- Drive? Or do you guys suggest that I should stay put and eventually the sound will go away (or I will get used to it )

Thanks.

It's possible that the cars alignment is out which is causing one or more of the wheels not to track propperly. you should get this checked because this can lead to premature tyre wear and even for the tyre to malfunction due to the generated heat.
