Quietest Tires for Volvo 2001 V70XC
 
Hey there,
Did a search but didn't come back with much. Am wondering what the quietest tire would be to put on a V70XC. In Memphis, we don't have much snow, but we do have quite a bt of rain. I'm looking for quietness more than anything, but obviously, good handling is required. Anyone have a recommendation?

EDIT: Oh, and it's 215/65/16


Thanks,
Mahlon

I love the Goodyear Tripletred Tire. Awesome in the rain and snow. Tom

I've got Michelin HydroEdge on mine, great all weather tire and very quiet.

You can get a whole bunch of user reviews on the websites of Tire Rack and Discount Tire/America's Tire. And they tell you the type of vehicle they're on, # of miles driven, and where the reviewer lives. You don't care how a tire performs on a 3 series BMW in SO. Cal., for instance. Spend some time there.

We have Goodyear Viva 2's on ours, and so far they are very quiet and handle nicely

Thanks everyone for the answers. This gives me a good place to start.
