    I put terra grapplers on my truck and now road noise seems loud
    If I go around a turn to the right or left it seems like the road noise totally goes away seems weird like maybe it's not a tire problem and some thing else only going straight it gives me the road noise at slow and fast speeds
    I have 13,000 on the tires and didn't seem to be this noisy when I got them put on they have already been rotated and balanced twice
    Any help

    I see a fair amount of reviews for those tires complaining about noise.
    Even more complaining they are bald after ~20k miles.

    I had these tires they were always noisy to me. I have never seen them go bald after 20k maybe they were riding the hell out of those tires. I got 50k out of mine before i figured it was unsafe to still be using them. The road noise was louder the more miles i put on them . My advice turn the radio up a little louder.

    You might also want to check this because I have no clue how loud your road noise actually is.

    NEWS FLASH... off road tires make more noise due to tread pattern.

    When turn they don't seam to make as much noise
    Or if you do a quick jerk if the wheel left or right it stops for a second
    Wheels were aligned and pressure is good just trying to make sure I don't have any other problems and noise it normal

    Well it's not my tires making the noise it was my front wheel bearings that were going bad 64,000 miles Toyota covered it all fixed and you can barely hear these tires they are great
    Toyota also ordered me 2 new front headlights because they saw both have cracks in them
    Also ordered the parts for rear suspension recall
    Germain Toyota in Naples fl was great gave me a loner car while truck got fixed and had my truck detailed when I picked it up

    I don't understand why it's so random who is getting the rear suspension recall done and who isn't. Doesn't seem like it should take this long for toyota to get the parts to replace things...

    Front wheel bearings. Jack it up and grab the tire at about 3 and 9 positions to see if there is any play. I just went through a similar situation and ordered to new sets from Bamatoy1997.
