2011 Rav 4 road noise - tyres?

Just bought a 2011 Rav 4 with A/T tyres on it - Dunlop Grandtrek At 3 tyres to be exact - they make a lot of noise on the road... has anyone experienced excessive tire noise ? Is it the tires or is it the car?

Yes ... 🙂 ... to some extent it is both. A RAV will never be limousine quiet but there will be much better options than your Grandtek AT 3's - label noise levels 73/74 dB

OEM tyres tend to be Bridgestone Duelers which are perfectly OK on good road surfaces and pretty noisy on all other surfaces.

I'm running Michelin Cross Climates (label noise level 69dB) which are pretty good overall - and true all season tyres to boot which suits the car very well.

Hi,

I've now got Michelin Cross Climate on my 2013 Rav and the noise level and general feel of the car is so much better. Previously had Good year which were not so good as the original Bridgestone Duellers
