The best way to lower road noise is called a SUB-WOOFER. emoji

It's your tires. But I eliminated road noise by getting a new muffler.

I've heard that up-graded fuel pumps also help to drown road noise. emoji

You can get some undercar coating. It's like you spray it on and its like liquid aspahlt or something. You'd put it on like wheel wells and stuff and it would get rid of some road noise. Just upgrade you stereo system dude.

you want a sound barrier like closed cell foam, open cell foam, fiberglass insulation, carpet padding(you already have this), thin lead, or any combination of them in addition to the dynamat. And then you can get thicker windows, etc.

Hmmmmmmmm. Since I lowered my car it's actually got better, no real road noise. I got R1 coilovers and they're great. But I do have a loud system so you can never tell, can't even hear my exhaust over the system.
