A new member with a Mondeo is looking for advice on tyres that give a quieter ride. Here’s his post in the new member’s section:

I can't recommend a particular tyre as my Continental SportContact5 tyres (which I find to be moderately noisey) have been replaced by the SC6, with the SC7 released in Europe.
What I would do is make up a list of tyres available in the size needed & check the details for them on tyrereviews.com. For most, under "Summary", noise is shown as a decibel range (depending on size) according to the Euro standard. For example - Falken FK520 68-72, Michelin Primacy 4 68-72, Pirelli Cinturato P7 66-72, Bridgestone Turanza T005 66-74, Hankook Ventus Evo2 65-75. Further down the page under "Label Scores", noise is shown for each size. For example, in the required size, the Pirelli P7 (96W) is 69 & the Hankook Evo2 is 70. There are also links to tyre comparison tests, some of which include noise level. |

As I indicated in my earlier post, noise level for a given pattern can vary by tyre size.
So I went back to tyrereviews.com and searched for reviews by size - 235/40R19. Note these are user, not expert, reviews. Highest rated for Comfort (ride & noise) was the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6 at 85%, with the Asymmetric 5 81%. However neither is available in Australia in the required size. The best I found that is available is the Michelin Primacy 4 at 83%. Some others - Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 79%; Maxxis Victa Sport5, Michelin Pilot Sport 4 & Continental Premium Contact 6 78%; Falken Azenis FK510 & Continental Sport Contact6 77%. Then a drop to Bridgestone Potenza Sport & B Turanza T005 & Kumho Ecsta PS71 73%. |
