In general, for quieter tires...
Usually highly rated tires are plusher、quieter、and smoother. Yeah lots of people here have chosen General AltiMAX RT43 and liked it. Its the lightest tire for 225/55R19 at 24.4 lbs. Its a good name brand tire with lower price than other name brands.hi guys,
looking for the quietest tires in the market,have19 rims with brigstone alenza 001 which are good but looking the plushest,quietest and smoothest tire there is out there.
tnx

Several manufacturers including Continental use sound deadening mats on the inside of the tire.
Sorry but my BS meter is going off. The sound is coming from the connection between the road surface and the OUTSIDE of the tire.
I mean if the mats manage to dampen the vibration properties of the tire...maybe it works.

Looking at above link...small pads on the inside of the tire...they aren't even egg shelled shaped...I don't buy it.
I'm guessing they made good quiet tread better and are working hard to sell the sizzle. I'd love to see tests done with these tires with and without the pads.
Edit: Found a test. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a...cally-insulated-tires-really-hush-road-noise/
It's negligible.

Um, no bs, just telling you about the latest tech for quiet tires. while there is some tread noise from outside the tire, but there is also the resonance of the tire.
Being that it's a negligible difference, even testing worse in some cases, I would say it absolutely is a scam. Right up there with Nitrogen filled tires.
You're getting 78% nitrogen with compressed air anyway, what's a few more percent going to really give you?
Nothing except a lighter wallet.

Yep yep.
So we don*t understand science, but glad we understand finance! Lmao.
I remember reading where Consumer Reports did a test which compared pressure loss between air and nitrogen.The air filled tire lost about 2 psi (at most) over a years time compared to the nitrogen.I also haven't really noticed any real corrosion inside of wheels from using air.Now gas station air hoses may have alot of water which I see as a bigger factor of corrosion inside wheels.
