reducing road noise?

[Matt 16v]

I'd like to make the inside of my car as quiete as possible, whats the best way to reduce road noise?

is getting dynamat on the doors and arches going to do anything noticible, also would i need to do the boot as well?

Matt,

I would agree Dynamat or a simalar product would be a good choice, if done properly it will also reduce any rattles in the car from trim. I would suggest speaking to a good audio dealer and getting them to fit it. Its a common Mod when doing ICE installs as it improves sound quality as the cabin is better insulated. You can buy the dynamat from caraudiosecurity.com.

Hope my rant helps?

You could try a different brand of tyres?

pretty sure i can manage fitting dynamat myself, dont really wanna pay loads of labour on something thats quite simple to do, suppose its just having the time and motivation to do it lol

tyres, thats interesting, I've got michelen pilot exaltos on mine at the moment, dont know how they fare, you rekon the eagles would be quieter?

Any tire with a central running strip or directional will lose noise.
