Default Just ordered Potenza RE950s...Need some tire noise feedback...
I have 205/55/16s on the car now...I have ordered 234/45/17s to go with my S4 Avus wheels, should I expect some tire noise increase just because of the tire size increase or is it not a problem as long as the tire is H rated and not a High performance tire.....please advise

Default I would expect a slight increase in tire noise...
comparing two tires which only differ in width, the wider one would also be noisier.
