Very quiet, but my RF's were more than half gone and six year old. I like their look and have the rim protector on them as well.

Traction is GREAT, but remember that these are SUMMER tires and they are totally useless in clod temps until they get a bit of heat in them.

I drive mainly in the summer so all is good. The price is great and they get high marks from the Tire Rack surveys.
