Need some new tires...advice?

So my tires are scalloped and making a crap ton of noise but they can't find a problem mechanically so I was considering getting new tires. I read somewhere that they dont recommend getting non-run flat tires so any tires that people would recommend? Thank you!

Just put yokohama S.Drives on mine (275 19 rear 245 front) and REALLY like them. Nice and quiet- and slick.

A majority of the tire folks I talked to recommended them... summer only though.

What kind of tires are you interested in? Summer only, A/S, etc? Any price range?

Im not really sure. The tires I have now are either loud as hell or there is something wrong with the alignment and they are cupped but I cant tell if they are or not. I have to take it to the dealer im thinking to get it looked at to be sure but if the tires are just loud I think for now I will just stick with them cause they are newer tires
