Default Sound Deadening

Hi guys and gals,

Ok probably a weird question since most of us want to strip stuff out to go faster, but I'm trying to research ways of reducing road noise in my X.

Long story short, I want to breath some new life into the car and as it is used as my daily, I would like to keep it 'comfortable'. I'm running quiet tyres (Kuhmo KU39's) which has cut a lot of the noise out, but looking for any other ideas. Added weight isn't an issue as I am no lightweight myself :P

Dynamat will help reduce panel vibrations, but from what I've read it doesn't decrease the road noise a lot. I would think a thicker foam would insulate the sound more or some form of additional lining on the tyre guards.

Any ideas would be great or if anyone knows someone who can do the work.

Cheers!
