Sounds like you are after noisy tyres. All tyres are noisy. But asking for quiet tyres narrows down the pick considerably.

no i just got 2 HaNkook k102 silica and they seem very noisy compared to dunlop and goodyear at low speed

How long have you had them for?

Uneven tyre wear causes a lot of road noise. Sounds like an aeroplane from inside the car.

had 2 days .. starting to get really noisy at low speed like under and at 40 i thought it would go away

i thought silica is spose to be quieter

are they directional tyres and you got them on backwards?

silica is for rolling resistance and traction in wet conditions. tread pattern the grooves is what channel sounds. certain lengths and angles make more sounds.

some companies have used engineers to create patterns that cancel out sounds.

tread pattern was wrong . to the eye it looked okie but the tread was slightly higher on left and right hand outer of tyre and middle was lower you could feel it but not really see it
