Default tire noise

I guess what I am trying to say is that I have not noticed that the yoko's are any louder, or quieter, than the stock Dunlops. to be honest, I was anticipating some extra hum with these, but It just didn't materialize. Maybe it has something to do with the tread groves being generally subparallel, and not perp. to the direction of travel?? Handling is nice, good traction. Although, with the higher stance accosiated with my bigger tires and lift (3 1/2 inches) you can feel the shift in the center of gravity. Have no complaints, other than having to pick gravel out of the treads once in awhile.
