I don't get much above 80 all that often, but I've never noticed much wind noise in the TSX at freeway speeds -- it's pretty quiet compared to my old Camry. Tire noise and the faint engine hum are more apparent in the TSX for me.

Lets just say hardly any wind noise at 120mph. Is this really a concern?

I get wind noise, either from below the windshield or driver's door, still having to locate the sound.

If you are going 120mph and are focused on listening to wind noise, you need to rethink your ability to sit behind the wheel...

None. But then again, it's not like you're driving an S-class.

I definately have some noise...I can't tell if it's from the moonroof or drivers window area. I'm leaning towards the drivers window. I really don't get it until around 80....and then it kind of sounds like water going through baseboard heaters. At first I thought something was wrong with my AC.

SPeaking of squealing tires.... I am looking to keep my silver star rims (17s) but would like to swap a better tire.... Any thoughts?

I prefer an all weather tire... maybe TOYO PROXIES F4?

When I go over bumps, I can hear the thump. But other than that, road noise is pretty quite and I haven't notice that much wind. I'm comparing this to my family's 98 accord v6, BTW.
