Thanks for your input.....I can see how the noise could be an inverter. I can't imagine being able to make an all electric car without having some sort of electrical noise. It is just part of having an all electric vehicle I guess.
I never knew about the foam lined tires. I wonder if it would be possible to get the stuff over the counter and adding some extra foam? I have the Michelin tires, 19" and the rubber is extremely hard. Compared to a sport tires which typically have a much softer compound. The softer compound comes at the expense of mileage. Typically about 50% less tread life when using a true spot tire.
Does anyone know what model tires come on the upgraded $4,500 wheel package. I would like to compare the rubber compounds used on standard vs sport.
Thanks,
Be sure to have your rear seats up as it muffles the road noise as well
