I believe the N-spec tires Porsche specifies have very stiff sidewalls and are, generally speaking, quite noisy. I am running Hankook Ventus on the street right now and the ride is kinda soft but relatively quite. They aren't N-spec of course. Don't get me wrong, I bought them because I daily drive and they were "good value" but I admit the old man ride is kind of a nice break.
I certainly wouldn't want to track these tires but for street and commuting work they are great. I have a set of Yokohama 048R on Autoclassic II rims for the track and AX...talk about noisy!!
