Hankook ice & snow installed on my 162's. Wow. All I hear now is everyone else's tire noise. The ride is much better as well!

Im surprised that there is that much difference in noise other than the standard difference between winter and summer tires.

How much did you pay? What are you doing with your run flats?

Which Hankook did you get, w300 Ice bear? I'm thinking to get either those or the Dunlop winter sport M3.

Yes it is the Ice Bear. It came out to $979 installed w/gst. It was a very quiet car before, but now ............ wow. BTW they are not the run-flats.
