My 04 corolla is loud as shit on the highway, are sound deadening

Its a LOT of work.

you might reduce noise with different tires. What do you run now?

>>16345224

Sound deadening panels are a meme, but proper sound deadening (panels, mass-loaded vinyl, etc) is not a meme.

Don't expect magic from just cheap panels.

continental true contacts

Those are decent on low noise.

With sound deadening you need to remove all the seats, door panels, carpet, rear seats, etc. and carefully place the sound stuff where there isnt any, and/or over existing stuff.

This is tedious work.

Not op but also interested, can you recommend any? Noico has good reviews
How about the cotton insulation pads?

I dont mind doing that, I had the whole ass end of the passenger compartment torn up to replace the rear speakers because the stock ones were blown.

I dont want to foil the whole interior, it looks like you only need to cover like 50% of any panel to get decent noise reduction.

I guess im just trying to figure out if buying a single kit and doing the inside of the doors and maybe the floor would make a significant difference.

It's mostly wind noise, probably.

>>16345224
Just turn the music up


Do you have a vagina or something? 2bh going from a 90s civic I really miss being able to hear the engine

Get a better car, a Camry would be more comfortable

>>16345224
Do you have good tires? How are the suspension bushings? What about the weatherstripping?

>will putting this shit inside the doors and floorboard actually going to make a big difference?

There is a nice archived thread about installing sound deadening material. There's various types and different approaches. See the thread at:

There are before and after videos on youtube, and videos with some other tips as well.

Lol, my buddy just sold his CRV and he says he didn't know he'd miss the noisy valvetrain.

engine noise makes the ride comfy.

>tfw driving home, sun setting over frozen corn fields, tfw gf in passenger seat slowly dozing off to the drone of the engine, and not a care in the world besides chewing up the miles and what song's up next in the eurobeat megamix
truly ultimate comfy.

Replace your shit tires with something decent

If you've driven on smooth new asphalt roads, you should have noticed a huge drop in noise. If not, then your tires are not merely the largest noise contributor, but by _far_ the largest noise contributor.

In such cases, your biggest noise improvement comes from using quieter tires. Some tires have strong grip yet are fairly quiet on city roads such as the Continental TrueContact which are the successor to the also quiet Continental ProContact. That other poster uses conti truecontact but I use conti procontact. The procontacts are the quietest high performance all seasons I've used yet, so I am quite pleased.

You've already seen other posts in past tire /o/ threads on ultra performance type tires such as michelin pilots. Those summer tires are quite noisy.

That's not the quietest type of car to be using at highway speeds. Since it's a 2004, you prolly don't want to dump a lot of new money into it. In my opinion, Noico is not all that effective on reducing conductive sounds thru thick metal or beams. It works best on large thin flat areas such as roofs.
