While my HF gets great MPG, it seems ot have lots of road noise from the back wheels.

Has anyone been able to quite these little cars down?

Could be bad wheel bearings....

or cheapo economy tires

There are much cheaper alternatives to Dynamat, also...they function on the same principle, without having to pay for the brand name.

http://b-quiet.com/ has a lot of these cheaper options.

i can vouch for the tires.. i had bfg tourings on my car when i got it.. SOO LOUD YOU WOULD HAVE TO YELL.. but now i got myself a set of falken zeiks and its makes a huge difference i think i payed like.. 345.00 installed, so i would say its deffinately someting to look into since it will not only quiet your car down but give you better traction recently a simi pulled out in front of me and i had to go from 75 to 25 in well.. no time flat and i have to say that rubber probably saved me and my rex. i can also say that dynamat is really worth the money but there are deffinately cheaper solutions

TIRES MAKE A WORLD OF A DIFFERENCE! for road noise and comfort level!

there are other options to Dynamat btw... cheaper, more efficient options (some that paint on!)...

i will eventually sound dampen my whole car inside out and engine bay... then we'll talk about road noise 8)

Could be bad wheel bearings....

Especially if it has alot of miles...
{Mine had around 280k at the time}

I never even heard the back of my car
until I replaced the front wheel bearings..
The back hubs are next.. :wink:
