    One persons quiet is another persons noisey. The Kuhmos are quieter than the Michelins on the majority of surfaces. I'm still very happy with them after 6K miles. They are wearing very well. Its time for a rotation.

   One thing I noticed, the Kuhmos are not as forgiving as the Michelins when it comes to inflation. If you left the pressure drop to 29 or below the ride gets too mushy and response goes away. I keep them at 33 lbs all the way around. I know you should never let the pressure drop...we are human :)
