This winter I decided to try and fix a couple issues with the car that I really didn't like; interior rattles, road noise, and heat off the transmission tunnel. By no means is my intent to create a Lexus type environment, but with crappy roads, coilovers, lowering, and wide 18" tires the road noise has become obnoxious. Here is my story.
