Default Anyone with Bridgestone RE730s experience excessive road noise?

Particularly at high speeds (60 mph+)? I've owned the tires for aabout 8 months and they've gotten pretty freaking whiny.

Default Check tire wear and alignment.

Although mine are a bit louder after 7k miles on them, but I had an alignement problem that was causing some uneven wear. I also rotated mine front to back and that helped a bit with the noise. I've also noticed that they get louder once they are warm - it seems to vary depending on the type of surface.

Default Mine are quite loud, especially during deceleration,

and, while I suspect this may seem like heresy on this board, considerably louder than my Pirelli P7000 SS's. Nevertheless, I think they're a great tire for the money.
