Help with tires...

I'm asking a question for my friend who has a 99 prelude. I know this is an acura forum but what the hell. He recently bought new tires.. bridgestone re730... and he has been reading that these tires are notorious for a lot of noise at high speeds. Bridgestone says he has to rotate them often to get really even tread wear otherwise he'll just get tire noise. Anyone have this problem and what can he do? Can you ever return tires??? or exchange them?? thanks for the help guys

More like inexpensive, great, but shitty tread life...and even decent in the snow. I am on my second set.
