Quieter Tires

My 350 sport has the 17" wheels and Michelin tires. My one complaint about this car is how noisy the tires are at highway speeds on most types of pavement. Has anyone here changed tires to reduce the road noise? If so, what did you buy and how successful was the switch?

Mine has the Michelin Primacy and I have no complaints about noise, they're as quiet if not quieter than the Contis I have on the E.
