Do I need new tires? Loud road noise...
I purchased some Triangle Talon TR968 in July 2007 and I have put 26,000 miles on them.
I have read that they are junkie tires, but for $275 new & mounted out the door, couldn't really pass it up.
I had a friend of mine ride in my car and he side to me "How can you stand all that road noise?" while going down the highway. Since that time, I have noticed that they are louder then before. (usually i have my music loud and don't notice anyways)
I have NOT had them balanced or rotated since I purchased them, and I didn't see any signs of defects.
What should I do?

Yeah, you definitely need to rotate your tires frequently.
If you did that, you could have turned that $275 deal for 26,000 miles into potentially 36,000 miles.
Try rotating your tires and listen for the sound again.
