The tires as stated are brand new, and the wheel alignment is dead on. I also get no steering wheel shake at any speed. In terms of road noise, I feel that it really depends on the asphault. If it's new asphault the real dark black kind (you know what I mean?), it's quiet. if you go on the free way, the more grayish in color, seems to be louder. I'm not saying it's un-bearable, however, compared to the GMC Envoy it's cabin was much quieter, less fatiguing.
