I had those on my RX-7.

They were great and held the road really really good but once they broke loose, hang on......your a passenger.

Didn't notice any noise level

Check out the Falken 452s.. I run Falken 912 on my Avalon and love them, I checked them out for my vette... and I gotta tell ya, I love them. I drive fast or I did till my pocket couldn't keep up... but they held the road and corners.. noise level was very low and overall great tires and would not hesitate to recommend them.
