[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 4312766, member: 15054"] Noisy off road tires can be determined by just looking at the side tread layout. Look at these side treads they are all evenly spaced or should I say exactly the same. [ATTACH type="full"]502444[/ATTACH] Now look at some of the other tires and notice the side treads are not all the same. If you offset a tread or 2 like make the pattern in 2's or 3's then you do not get evenly spaced treads on the side and that road noise is greatly reduced. It is like a fan with evenly spaced blades---- very noisy. Build the fan with an offset blade pattern and it will be much quieter. You are breaking the constant wind flow and that reduces noise. I run flex fans on my V8 engines for cooling but mine have offset blades and are quiet. You get evenly spaced fan blades they will talk to you. [/QUOTE]
