I recently put Falkin 451's on mine. They are quiet compared to the runcraps. Just got back from running the Dragon and they seem to have goood grip also. Jimmy

Bought a set of Avon Tech M550 A/S back in July. Much quieter and smoother ride, IMHO.

I have the Kuhmo Ecsta MX run flats. Still have the security of a run flat, but a smooth ride, great traction, and a great price. Zuti

I have the Michelin Pilot Sport PS2's, and I love 'em. Good luck with your search.

I run the Goodyear GS-D3s and really like them. Quiet; great handling; and great in wet weather.
