Default 2004 RX 330-Internal Noise Level - 03-30-2007 , 07:27 PM






My only major complaint with the car has been the internal noise level. It
is like riding in a work truck You can't hear the radio unless it turned up
high. Forget the radio if you have the windows down. The dealer suggested
I change out the tires when it came time. I bought the car new and it came
with rain and mud tires. I am getting ready to get new tires. Any
suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Do you have the 18" or 17" tires? If you have the 18", the Michelin
MXV's are really quiet. I don't care for the lack of treadwear
warranty or that I have been really lucky to get 40K on them, but they
are quiet.

On our AWD RX330 (18"), I have gone through 2 sets of Michelin's and I
am getting ready to put Bridgestone Dueler H/L Alenza's on; great
reviews at tirerack.com

YMMV.

Wrong...the RX330 is a car based SUV, not a truck based SUV.
