Road noise

Recently acquired 2003 Coupe. Seems like the road noise is quite loud. Can't hear very well on my cell at 60. Is this excessive or normal. My 96 is pretty quiet.

If you have well-worn run-flats, its probably normal.

How many miles on the car & how many miles on the tires?

I picked up a used 03 coupe with 3750 miles (Not even broke in yet).. It has the origional run flats and does make a bit of noise on the highway.

Once spring is here, I plan on doing the frost king mod to the rear section. As for now, I just cover the noise with the stereo or exhaust tone....

Corvette Fever did an article in their March 2003 issue about a product called KoolMat to quiet the interior. www.koolmat.com
Where can I learn more about a product called Frost King that was mentioned in a previous post?
My 2004 is noisier than I like and plan on installing some sort of sound-deadening material soon!
