Is there a Quiet comfortable Tire in 295/35 or 40 R21?
I have 21" wheels on my 2009 and the tires are shot and loud and harsh as crap. Makes my old 2007 on 19" rubber feel like a limo - the old car had less rattles and squeaks.
I aim to find all rattles and squeaks and get rid of them, but want good summer tires - don't mind if soft compound, just want grip and quietness with a decent ride.
Looking at Toyo Proxes T1 Sport SUV 295/40 R21's to get a little more sidewall... otherwise my choices are Vredestein Ultrac Vori/Michelin Latitude Sport 3/Dunlop SP Quatrromaxx/or Pirelli P Zero 295/35 R21
The old Conti DWA are not avail in 21" and the UHP are crap.

The ride of the Toyo tires was a softer more comfortable ride than the Nittos I have now but the Nittos lasted longer. The more sidewall the quieter the ride.

Bazman, what did you decide on? My Vred 295/35-21s need to be replaced. It seems that size has been discontinued.
I'm thinking of going to a 295/40-21 as well (which is how I stumbled on this thread).
It's going on the family 2013 ML63. I haven't updated my profile in a long time, lol.
