Default Conti Sports are seriously loud!

I drove my car for the first time today on the Toyo RA1s and oh my, are they much quieter than the stock ContSport2 tires; those things a way too loud. I'm definitely going to try a different street tire when they wear out.

I'm guessing the PS2's are much quieter; I've had them on other cars and don't remember them being loud. How are they on the Cayman?

Do you have 18 or 19 inch wheels? I can't find the Toyo's for OEM 18" wheels

oem 18" may be too narrow for toyo's. pete and i run 245/40 and 275/35's my rims are 8.5" and 10". petes may be even wider.

yes, conti is lound and POS.
PS2 is the best street tires you can get.

Mine was delivered on Conti's as well. Hate these tires!
