Howling tires can get old pretty quickly for most folks. I guess Goodyear realized this and took steps to quiet the tires you refer to. But for me, I'll take howling tires over the radio anyday.

duratracs to bfg rugged terrains

i had duratracs on mine. loved them at first. when they got worn down about half way, they started to make my whole dash sound like a bee hive on fire (45 mph on blacktop the worst; 65 on hwy they were ok, but still humming)...finally could not take it anymore and went back to discount and was convinced on traded them in for some bfg rugged terrains, not as mean looking, but unbelievably quieter and told they "should" stay that way. posted two pics with them on. actually look pretty good....imo.

here is a look at one from a link, http://www.propickupmag.com/bfgoodri...errain-review/

I was really disappointed in my nitto terra grapplers. Traction and grip was great but noisier than I expected and they wore extremely fast. Much faster than they claim. I've had them for maybe 10k miles and they're pretty much ready to be trashed in about another 5k. I probably won't do terra grapplers again. I recommended above pirellis and I think im gonna go that route. Much quieter and they're aggressive enough for what I'd need them for.

Well I decided to try the Silent Armor's because my buddy bought my Fortera's from me for what I paid for them because were I bought them ran out and the new order was going to be $30 a tire more.. I put the Armor's on and I like them alot.. Little to no noise, handle well on the highway.. Can't wait to see what they do in the snow..
