How loud are these rotors when stopping? I put a similar pair on our van and they are very loud when slowing from a higher speed.

Rotors never made noise but after a lilttle while the pads would squeak from time to time but otherwise after changing pads they are quiet

I have them on a 2002 escalade ext and they perform nicely. i don't seem to have any additonal noise than regular rotors and brakes. Am purchasing set for my other vehicle.

They are very quiet, turbine sy=tyle impellers and a well designed housing. vertical /horizontal mounting options, etc.... I am running four of them, and the "whistle" and "air noise" is louder than units themselves..... Good stuff.. the person who answered with a #7, must have a poor mount or something, they are very quit.Frantic1

Hello Cy, the drone is there but it is not all that bad. The car sounds amazing with the Flowmaster's on it. I am trying to think what RPM it seems the loudest but my Challenger has been in storage all winter and I really don't remember. I guess that speaks for it self. It is subjective of course but I don't mind it at all. Did I mention my car sounds awesome... :)

Hi, I own a 2013 dodge ram HEMI, Yes there is definitely a bit of an annoying tone when at cruising speed on the freeway, I will actually click the button on the gear shift lever and downshift one gear to increase the RPMs just a bit and that annoying tone goes away, I love the muffler and around town it sounds really great, I like that the truck sits idling nice and quiet But when you get on the gas it sounds Excellent. I Wish it didn't have the annoying tone (not an issue in town) but you get used to it, I'm pretty sure I would buy it again. P.S. If you like driving a little faster on the freeways let's say 75 or 80 there is no weird drone noise. Increased rpm's Same as downshifting at 60 miles an hour. Hope this helps a little bit.

Mine is a 2011 EX. It's noisy between 35ish and 50ish. Don't know if it affects mileage much. I'm thinking about taking them off. The only reason I installed them in the first place was that I thought they made the vehicle look better. If you need roof carrying capability they are nice and the stuff you carry will have a greater effect on mileage and noise than the bars alone. I also wonder if there is a deflector available that will improve on the noise issue.

I dont recall it getting louder when you put pressure on it. I would get it replaced. Sounds like a bad bearing to me.

sorry, the one we have has not made any unusual sounds. Do you have pets? If yes, could it be hair around wheels? Or if its a motor bad sound, I'd consider returning the item. Sorry, best luck

Yes. I have them with the stock rotor. These bands are not as aggressive as the stock pads. Expect less stopping power.

The noise is not an installation problem. It is due to the resistance it has on the air as you are driving. The interference of the luggage carrier causes the noise. If it bothers you alot, you can take them off very easily when you are going on trips. I don't do this. I leave them on and learn to live with the noisy ride.

I have not noticed any noise. I had read that as well and was planning to just install when I needed them but they have been great for me. Leave them on all the time.

I do not think they are loud at all. I have them on a 2003 Tahoe Z71 and I cant hear them even with the radio off.

They are pretty amazing for the money, can't hear them to well on the freeway though. PS my bike is pretty quiet. If you have a loud bike you'll want to keep shopping...

I had to order 2 of these rotors. They only come 1 in each pack. Hope that helps.

If you have your radio off and dead silence in the vehicle you can hear a slight whistle while cruising at highway speeds. When you get on the gas hard you get a nice v8 throttly sound almost like you have exhaust.

they are fairly loud. they drown out a lot of the engine noise on my 62 falcon if i'm standing next to it while running. i have 2 installed, louder than an average electric fan. i also have mine mounted in front as pusher fans, that may make a big difference

I switched to these when the roush ones i had were too loud. These are great at passing and accelerating, without the drone or sound level at highway speeds. A good upgrade from stock, but not annoying loud.
