my Kumho 711's are nearly silent on the highway.

I love them- cannot be beat for the price, hands down.

there's a lot better out there for under $150 than the Kumhos...

not to rip on them. I have them and they are an awesome tire... great wet and dry traction... but you can get tires that hold even better than these for under $150! The Kumhos are good sub $100 tire... great bang for buck

my 2 cents

I'd rate them about a 7.5 (out of 10) for noise

They are also VERY cheap....less than $100/each. If you want something extremely quiet, this isn't the right tire for you, but they're not loud by any stretch of the imagination.
