Looking for a very quiet tire for 2009 E350 Sport

Hi everyone. I have a 2009 W211 E350 with the Sport package.

Right now, I have Michelin MXM4 tires on the E350 and I'm not particularly happy with the amount of tire roar and road noise. I'm looking for a very quiet, smooth riding tire and wondered if anyone had any recommendations? I'm less bothered about performance, this is a daily driver, and most interested in a very quiet ride.

Any suggestions appreciated!

depends on the weather
I thkink your tires may be suffering from either lack of proper maintenance, incorrect air pressure or some sort of alignment issue as the Primacy MXM4 Michelins are typically very quiet

There are only 2 tires that are quieter. They are the Bridgestone Turanza serenity and the Michelin Primacy MXV4

Hi Luke, thanks for the reply!

I actually have the Pilot HX MXM4, not the Primacy MXM4. They are all inflated OK, I think it's just not one of Michelin's best...

I'll take a look at the three tires you suggest. Of the three, which would be your choice? And is there a code etc to use on the order so you get credit if I buy them from TireRack?

thanks again!
