Tire Question

Good Evening,

I changed my summer tires from Michelin Pilot Super Sport 205/45/17 to Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 205/45/17. The AS4 seem to be noisier then the Super Sport. Any comments from the tire experts?

Thank you,
Bob

I would expect the all season tire to produce a bit more road noise. They work better in winter due to the open tread design. Open tread would produce more noise. It is all a trade off of sorts.
