Stock tires seem very loud as others have mentionend. I do not know all of the acronyms so please spell it out manufacturer and model.
For street performance, I recommend the Continental ExtremeContact DWS. I bought the DWS recently to replace the stock tires. It is better, smoother, & much quieter than the stock tires. It is probably the best all-weather tire as it has some light snow capability. With treadwear rating 540, it lasts at least 50k miles. DWS is only slightly underperform against other high performance summer tires. But for non-extreme/track driving, DWS has high rating on all categories which are well suited for all road conditions.
