Subject:      My noisy Agilis tires ???
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

To continue on with this tire thread, my new Agilis tires seem to me to be very noisy when I drive on the freeway. Especially up front.

I am new to Vanagon ownership so I have never run anything else on them. Is this normal ???

My 1990 Nissan Sentra and 88 F-150 pickup arnt even near as noisy as my 81 Westy. I would say its almost as noisy as my Eurovan Camper which has Goodyear truck tires.

I am planning to put in sound insulation soon to try to deaden it. Also when I have the front end aligned I will have them check the front end joints and bearings.
