Well I can't say that I've driven on a lot of roads that are exactly littered with rocks and debris. I guess what I was getting at is that it seems to be kicking up more stuff than usual on the same roads and that the sound is more noticeable (like it's just spraying crap against the metal). Maybe I'm just being paranoid.
I have noticed the same thing. As stated earlier it is probably the summer only tires. Same roads in my other vehicles and they don't pick up as much junk. I'm hoping it lessens as the tires "break in". It just gets worse from this point on out around my area as they like to spread sand and cinder on the roads in the wintertime. Nothing like putting sandblasting shit material on the roads to blast the paint off your car as you drive. Road salt is bad enough but then they spread the cinder. I should send them a bill to repaint the areas behind the wheels on my GTO. Back to the tires though, I would think it would get a little better as the roads get colder (tires less "sticky") and the tires get broken in.
This is a sign that you're used to driving cars with more sound deadening.
Classic.
You should hear my old set up. Every plastic panel and sound deadening was pulled from behind the front seats. Probably only saved 20lbs but with a set of radials throwing up every speck of dust and hitting the bare tin metal... That was bad lol
