[QUOTE="Woppy V, post: 884330, member: 64868"] You mentioned you've had these tires for 20,000 miles. Replaced the shocks recently and did an alignment yet it still roars while driving... Unfortunately it sounds like your tires have feathered on the edges... This is most likely due to the fact that your rode them for so long on the old shocks before replacing them. Did you replace the shocks because of the noise? If so that would indicate that the tires had already started to feather and the shock replacement came to late to resolve the problem. I had this happen with my stock goodyears. Once feathered the noise doesn't go away even with shocks, alignment, etc... it simply sucks. I own currently the Revos and they are a spectacular tire. Regretably it sounds like the tire wasn't at fault but the shocks... now that they have feather then noise will continue. it might subside after a some additional wear. ALSO. with these tires make sure they are at MAX PSI. that will hinder further feathering and may aid in reducing the effect thus far. Email with Questions... I've been down this exact road and know the immense frustration your going thru. [/QUOTE]
