My 03 sedan is currently riding on the OEM EL-42s. The tires have a crack over 40K miles and they've been abused thanks to my laziness of never getting an alignment after installing the Z/coupe springs. Anyways, for the last 30-45 days, I've noticed the road noise is a bit louder and is getting louder by the day. The tires are just within the acceptable wear range.

 

Dave I had to put soundproofing in my trunk it got so bad. I have 34 on my car with OEM tires and they got BAD after 25 or so. I have some more time left on them sicne they still have tread but I couldn't have held a conversation with my wife until I got the soundproofing, and she's no quiet one!
