Hi all, thanks for allowing me joining here, I’ve change my wheel from stock 16” to 18”, it’s a flow forming wheel 18x8.5jj et35, equip with tyre 235/40/18 Goodyear eagle f1 sport, I think this tyre is only for Asia and Australia market, it been a month I driving with this set of tyre, the road noise is exceptionally loud at highway, especially exceed 100kmh, I’ve visit few tyre shop to diagnose the problem, there’s few reason given but none of them solve the noise problem:
1. The low offset causing wheel exceed fender like 10mm, it causing loud noise.
2. The tyre is hard compound, causing loud noise,
3. The tyre mount is stretched, causing the loss of sound proof. (I think this is not true as 8.5” rims is most common to equip with 235 tyre. )
4. The rear camber is too negative, causing tyre noise. (It’s factory camber setting, measured naked eye is like -1.5 degree)
5. It simply is I’m too sensitive in road noise, I need to get use to it.
The car is three month old, have did properly alignment, no other mods is applied, the original 16” wheel is very low in noise, so comfort.
There’s a sample video recorded exactly what I hear when driving:
And below is some pic for reference.
thank you all and hope to get some good opinion to solve this issue.
