Tyre noise.

If your riding with Knobbly tyres, as they rotate, they generate air pockets between the tread blocks. This can amplify the sound produced, leading to a louder driving experience.

The best alternatives to knobbly tyres for quieter driving are touring and all-season tyres, which are designed with smoother tread patterns and softer rubber compounds to minimize noise. Brands like Michelin, Bridgestone, and Continental offer models specifically engineered for reduced road noise and enhanced comfort.

Smoother the road surface less pockets of air, as Steptoe mentions #4, happens more noticeably while in a car.

All tyres have a noise rating.
TKC 70 front for example is rated at 72db
