I do a lot of highway driving, living 200 miles away from the rest of my family. The old 6gc has been incredibly reliable, but the one thing about the ST is it's NOISY on the highway, and that's on the stock wheels ( can't imagine 17's or above). I plan on adding some insulation inside the doors soon, but I think the majority of the noise comes from the wind passing by the A pillar. Is there anything that can be done to quiet this down a bit?

Yeah that's kind of what I figured. Oh well, insulating the doors and floor should at least cut down road noise....to the point of at least being able to maintain conversation. As of now that's a bit of a challenge.

And I've long since given up using the radio on the highway. FLAC files on my Cowon with noise cancelling Sennheiser's makes the drive much more tolerable.

As far as insulating material though, what is the preferred choice? I've heard good things about frost king (I think it's called).
