Quiet tyres for my 330ci
Discussion
So at the moment I have Nankang NSR2's all round. These are incredibly noisey they sound like 4 faulty wheelbearings.
I have £500 + money for fitting to replace all 4 but am at a loss at what to get. I want as quiet and comfortable as possible, I am not bothered by top dry performance as I don't really drive like that anymore, and in the wet I am super cautious, the back end has already slid out unexpectantly and I am sure my DSC is broken as I cannot get it to flash at me at all though it does not error either on dash or in codes.
Looking around it seems Dunlop SP Maxx RT is best for me as it has 67db rating whilst being good in the dry. People recommend PS2/3's but these are 70db so are going to be louder right?
I also have wierd profiles as back wheels are wider, so i need
2x 225/40R18 Y 91
2x 255/35R18 Y 91
Which makes things slightly trickier!

Four Goodyear Eagle F1 Assymetric 2's ordered.
I managed to have them ordered and they will be fitted balanced and tracked for £10 less than the price of ordering them from BlackCircles thanks to a brilliant garage I use for this in Callington! So around £490 in total depending on whether the car needs tracking or not.

They are on. My tracking is dialed in...much better except when I come to a stop the steering wheel turns about 45deg to the right, and my car intermittently judders at around 70mph. Thinking control arm/bushes? Meyle HD's next then...
I really ought to replace every brake disc, pad and caliper in one go but it is a huge expense just for piece of mind.
