Loud tires could merely be a symptom of a specific tread pattern or could be a sign of a more serious issue; there are many factors that can contribute to excessive tire noise. Fortunately, with the proper understanding of why tires make noise in the first place, as well as various reasons for excess tire noise, diagnosing and fixing noisy tires can be easy and simple.

Last month we wrote 3 articles discussing tire noise. If you are being deafened by your tires, take a look below to learn about normal and abnormal sources of tire noise, as well as some tips for how you can fix this annoying and potentially dangerous issue.

Normal Reasons for Tire Noise

Generally, noisy tires aren’t a sign of anything particularly nefarious. Common causes of noisy tires include tire type, tire size, tire tread, road conditions, and driving tendencies.

Abnormal Reasons for Tire Noise

If you have reason to believe that the factors listed above aren’t the sole source of your issue, it is time to consider alternative causes. Abnormal reasons for tire noise usually fall into three main categories: uneven treadwear, improper maintenance, or non-tire causes. Each of these factors should be considered as safety concerns.
