Tire options (sound level)

[VinceBob]

Hello! I am currently running 295/40/20 Toyo Proxes ST III on my Explorer Sport. At the moment I am on my winter tires and find them quieter (I mean alot!!) than my summer tires. What would be your suggestions to replace them? The truck has also the steeda lowering springs and rear swaybar.

Thanks Peter. Unfortunatly, its mostly a stock tire size discussion and they are not all available in the size I have.

The larger the contact to the ground the more sound. The tire profiles in that larger size are obviously all performance oriented too. Snow tires use a much different compound and should be louder than all seasons on dry pavement.
