Quiet is a must, performance is not priority as Im not tracking or anything. Just want a set of quiet tires. 225/40/Z18. thanks for the help.

Eagle F1 GS D3s are pretty damn quiet. And awesome traction in rain and dry.

I disagree with the proxes 4. I have them right now and I dont think they are quiet at all. The contis that came with the car were super quiet compared to the proxes 4.

Default Look at the Yokohama DB range - They were quiet when I had them.
