Might be your wheel bearings and not your tires. How many miles on your car?

I have fitted them to wifes Renault Clio (I know, not the most powerful car around) and have nothing but praise for them. Quiet and very grippy in the wet and dry. Done about 15000kms so far and they are about half worn.

Yep, can't speak for the S1's but the evo 12's I have are awesome. Super quiet and comfortable ride. I liked them so much I am currently running them on my G35 and M3. You can't beet Hankook's for the money!
