They're not that much quieter than the stock Bridgestones, but they are noticeably softer giving you a more comfortable ride. But that comfy ride comes at a cost. The softer tire wall means the turn in and weight shifts make the car feel "mushy" making it a little less fun IMO.

Yup! life is a compromise....but i find the car just as much fun..and in fact like it a lot better.

Thanks, Ill stay with the Hankooks v12s with the Avant Garde rims. Never drive in cold weather so the Continentals wouldnt match my needs.
