After i came back from the trip i notice tire noise has gotten worse... i driven 7000 miles and when you go over 50 miles, you hear that haming noise come from back of the car, i had one of my friend to drive my car and i was on his car, when he passed through, i thought 18 wheeler taking me over.
Tires looks new and has good treads on it, but to much noise.
I wanna get some quiet tires, What brand of tires should i get?
Please advise...
Front: 275/40ZR20 and Rear: 315/35ZR20

Also are you 100% sure they are the winter proxes? Are the they Snowprox or the Proxes S/T's?
I would recommend the Proxes S/T II's. They are much better than the original S/T's with regard to noise. The original S/T's were great tires for me, but noise was pretty bad. I would also look a the Bridgestone Dueler HP Sport, Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta SUV or Pirelli Scorpion Asimmetricos. I would personally stay away from the Michelins at all cost as far as the X5 is concerned.
