Just rotated my Pilot Sports, and they are loud...
at around 30 mph, but sound normal at all other speeds. Do you think they just need to be broken in? The noise isn't the brakes because it does it even when I decelerate.

Yeah...P7000 Supersports...hard compound. >>>
they get REAL greasy on the track, and are not very good in the wet. It was a bad decision that i made, that will not be made again. Changing when i move to 18"

I have had no problems with my p7000's in the wet, they are much better
than the RE040's the car came with. I haven't tried them on the track. They are starting to become more loud as they wear. I probably have 15-19K on them.

Same thing with mine ... noise continued to 24k when I replaced them >>>
with another set of Pilot Sports. I'm very happy with the wear and grip. I can live with the noise ... I see it as an even trade off. I figure you can't have everything, so I'd prefer to have good grip over low noise.
The price is tough to take, but there are more expensive tires out there.
