I threw some pillows in the back today and tested the car.. I actually think it was a little bit better... but cant tell im just imagining it. I also dont know if pillows would be as effective as the sound absorber products out there. I think my car is extra loud cause of the tires. Im using some NANKANG NS-2 that came with the car when I bought it.

These tyres are a genuine false economy!! They have decent grip in both wet and dry, but tyre noise got so bad I had 2 wheel bearings replaced before realosing it was the TYRES. Replaced with Pirelli P6000s and massive difference and not that much more expensive! and in that same forum somone posted this.. I'm very satisfied with my NS2. I've used my first set for 4 years now, and will definitely consider buying them again, when it's time. They are silent running, and gives a precise feeling. Enough to drive anyone crazy! http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Nankang/NS2.htm Some stores let you try the tires before buying and that is the best way to go..

Just changed out original tires on my '09 base for Continental Extreme Contact DWS. WOW! Cut out half the road noise and made for a less harsh ride, as well. Still a wonderful car---and now a joy to drive. Reasonably priced tires, worth their weight in gold!

Tires
I also changed tires recently to much larger Hankooks V12s 255/295. They're better than the smaller 225/245s 18s I had. Softer ride and noise is I believe quieter.
