Is it normal for 6 gen's to be really noisy when it comes to tire noise inside the car? I'm thinking it may be just the tires, or worse a bearing if its not.

Well, i didnt know it but a ran a few hundred miles on a rear tire with 10psi...it kinda made the tire treads bumpy and its noisey as heck...its only normal if you have low tire pressure, or your car is out of alignment, or your tire could just be bad.

Or just the tires, the Michelin Pilots that came on mine were extremely noisy, The Yokohamas that came on my 7th gen wheels are much quieter. And the hatchbacks are naturally louder with the wheelwell pretty much in the passenger compartment, I am going to add some sound deadening material under the interior panels one of these days,,,

Turned out it was the tires, once I put my wheels and tires on it got rid of the noise.
