Not true at all. I upgraded to the latest "Goodyear Ultragrip Ice" tires this past winter and they are quiiiiiiet and smoooth on the road (I'm talking highway speeds of 130-155km/h). Now my previous Dunlop Graspic tires had amazing grip but were slightly noisy. I guess they've really improved winter tire technology.
