has anyone got any experiences with tyres with high aspect ratios? like 70 or 80?0

Your speedo will alter if you increase/decrease the total circumference of your wheels/tyres. Therefore if you get bigger wheels you will need a lower profile thus greater noise.
Of course you could change the whole set up of your car and increase wheel size and retain profile but that will need altering your speedo, checking clearances and informing your insurer.
Bigger wheels in general will give a smoother ride.A contented mind is the greatest blessing a man can enjoy in this world.0
