Have you recently had new tires installed? If you’re hearing tire noise, this could be attributed to the tread design and compound of the tires. If you’ve only done a few drives on your new tires, give them a few more drives before you pass final judgement, as some tires will get quieter after a “break-in” period. Porsches are high-performance vehicles (this includes all the four-door vehicles as well) and wider tires are the norm. New tires may produce a different (or more) noise than the previous tires due to different tread patterns and tire compounds. Brand-new tires also may need a few miles to "break in." The wider the tire, the larger the tire's contact patch on the road, which can increase the road noise. Try to stick to the latest N-rated tires, because they were developed specifically for Porsches and are Porsche-approved for your model. If you’re unsure, Tire Rack has a list of N-Spec tires. I would also recommend reading real-world user reviews of whatever tires you may have installed on your car. Winter and all-weather tires such as these may make different noises than summer or all-season tires. Tread-depth indicators are circled in red and indicate a lot of life is still left on these nearly new tires. Tire noise is annoying and will appear in reviews as a negative recommendation. Since we’re getting closer to switching over to winter tires in some states, remember that the treads on these tires may be louder than your summer tires. Check the balance of your tires. Depending on where you had your tires installed, sometimes part of the purchase includes free balancing checks. Wheel weights can fall off and make the car vibrate, especially the steering wheel. An unbalanced wheel and tire can lead to premature wear on your tires as well as a gradual increase in tire noise due to wear. It’s best to have their balanced checked every 4-6 months or 5-6,000 miles Wheel alignment is also critical to proper wear of your tires. Normally, the rule of thumb is to have your alignment checked every six months or 6,000 miles. If you’re checking your tread for uneven wear due to misalignment, remember to check the inside of the tire as well. Too often people glance at the 1-2 inches of the outside tread and use that to judge the entire tire. On Porsches, the inner tread usually gets more use than the outer due to negative camber and toe settings that emphasize sporty handling over tire wear. Check your tire pressures. This is especially crucial for those who live in areas that experience more than one season. Tire pressures fluctuate with the change in temperature. Incorrect tire pressure will lead to uneven wear, which in turn leads to tire noise, as well as affect fuel consumption. If, after checking these things, you are still experiencing tire noise, take your Porsche to your favorite dealer or independent Porsche repair shop to have them check and hopefully hear the same noise you are concerned about. The video below will give you a visual of what a tire look like that has uneven wear and is making excessive tire noise.   Related Stories: » Porsche Gifted Us Four Must-See Videos About The History of Porsche and the Turbo» 10 Tire Maintenance Tips For Porsche Owners | PCA Tech Tips» What is the Difference Between Paint to Sample and Paint to Sample Plus? | PCA Tech Tips» It's 9/24 Day: Here are our favorite Porsche 924 models! | PCA Tech Tips» With the 2024 racing season ending soon, where does Porsche stand?

To check for uneven wear, look at and feel your tires if you can’t see the inside tread. Run your hands around the tire treads and see if you can feel a difference in tread depth from left to right. Uneven wear will show itself with highs and lows on the tread surface. Preferably, feel a newer tire that has very little wear first and then feel your tire. Additionally, if the tire’s tread had worn to the tread-depth indicators, then that tire warrants replacement.

Uneven tire wear (or just really worn tires with even wear). This was probably the cause of my tire noise. The tires I replaced were a soft compound Summer tire with a wear rating of 200. I also used it for many autocrosses so the wear was not even due to the lower-than-recommended tire pressures I would try out.

Recently, I had noticed that my 911 was making a sound as if I had a wheel bearing going bad. While I did the normal checks to determine which wheel bearing was going bad, I had no luck in isolating it. I also was in need of new tires as my currently tires were past their wear points (having served as autocross and PCA tour tires for the past three years). My hope was that the noise I was hearing and feeling was tires and not bearings or other suspension components. Fortunately, after I picked up the car, I was correct and the old tires were the issue. The shop confirmed this as they also examined the bearing and suspension components for wear and found nothing unusual. So, why do tires suddenly start making road noise?

Although it is hard to see in the picture, this tire wore slightly more on the inside than the outside due to -2.1° of camber combined with 2 millimeters toe-in, a few thousand miles of street and highway driving (with a few brisk back road drives for good measuer), and 10-15 autocrosses. These sticky 200-treadwear tires are just about down to the smaller tread-depth indicators after less than 10,000 miles. They will need to be replaced soon.

Uneven tire wear (or just really worn tires with even wear). This was probably the cause of my tire noise. The tires I replaced were a soft compound Summer tire with a wear rating of 200. I also used it for many autocrosses so the wear was not even due to the lower-than-recommended tire pressures I would try out. Although it is hard to see in the picture, this tire wore slightly more on the inside than the outside due to -2.1° of camber combined with 2 millimeters toe-in, a few thousand miles of street and highway driving (with a few brisk back road drives for good measuer), and 10-15 autocrosses. These sticky 200-treadwear tires are just about down to the smaller tread-depth indicators after less than 10,000 miles. They will need to be replaced soon. To check for uneven wear, look at and feel your tires if you can’t see the inside tread. Run your hands around the tire treads and see if you can feel a difference in tread depth from left to right. Uneven wear will show itself with highs and lows on the tread surface. Preferably, feel a newer tire that has very little wear first and then feel your tire. Additionally, if the tire’s tread had worn to the tread-depth indicators, then that tire warrants replacement. Have you recently had new tires installed? If you’re hearing tire noise, this could be attributed to the tread design and compound of the tires. If you’ve only done a few drives on your new tires, give them a few more drives before you pass final judgement, as some tires will get quieter after a “break-in” period. Porsches are high-performance vehicles (this includes all the four-door vehicles as well) and wider tires are the norm. New tires may produce a different (or more) noise than the previous tires due to different tread patterns and tire compounds. Brand-new tires also may need a few miles to "break in." The wider the tire, the larger the tire's contact patch on the road, which can increase the road noise. Try to stick to the latest N-rated tires, because they were developed specifically for Porsches and are Porsche-approved for your model. If you’re unsure, Tire Rack has a list of N-Spec tires. I would also recommend reading real-world user reviews of whatever tires you may have installed on your car. Winter and all-weather tires such as these may make different noises than summer or all-season tires. Tread-depth indicators are circled in red and indicate a lot of life is still left on these nearly new tires. Tire noise is annoying and will appear in reviews as a negative recommendation. Since we’re getting closer to switching over to winter tires in some states, remember that the treads on these tires may be louder than your summer tires. Check the balance of your tires. Depending on where you had your tires installed, sometimes part of the purchase includes free balancing checks. Wheel weights can fall off and make the car vibrate, especially the steering wheel. An unbalanced wheel and tire can lead to premature wear on your tires as well as a gradual increase in tire noise due to wear. It’s best to have their balanced checked every 4-6 months or 5-6,000 miles Wheel alignment is also critical to proper wear of your tires. Normally, the rule of thumb is to have your alignment checked every six months or 6,000 miles. If you’re checking your tread for uneven wear due to misalignment, remember to check the inside of the tire as well. Too often people glance at the 1-2 inches of the outside tread and use that to judge the entire tire. On Porsches, the inner tread usually gets more use than the outer due to negative camber and toe settings that emphasize sporty handling over tire wear. Check your tire pressures. This is especially crucial for those who live in areas that experience more than one season. Tire pressures fluctuate with the change in temperature. Incorrect tire pressure will lead to uneven wear, which in turn leads to tire noise, as well as affect fuel consumption. If, after checking these things, you are still experiencing tire noise, take your Porsche to your favorite dealer or independent Porsche repair shop to have them check and hopefully hear the same noise you are concerned about.
