with the soft top it causes air to flap and increases the noise of it flapping.

Have this setup - no increased road noise - it may or may not be there but with soft top and 35's there is a constant dull roar anyway. certainly a great addition!

I love the look and just installed them. I have the sunrider from Bestop and the lightbar made it MUCH louder. I'm hoping to adjust it tonight, so I will update if there is an improvement.

Stops the buffeting the hardtop produces windows up / front panels off 2dr. No noticeable noise increase and they are amazing in conjuction with the ERA pocket fog lights. KCā€™s quality is unsurpassed. The harness, lights and mounts are quite impressive.

I have the light bar and it absolutely increases the flapping on the soft top.

Iā€™ve adjusted them every way I can and I can only move the noise further back and above like 45 mph itā€™s pretty hard to hold a convo. I was definitely expecting some noise, and with the soft top down itā€™s not that noticeable, but fully latched it flaps like a sheet in a tornado, and thatā€™s the noise not the whirring wind.

looks Fā€™n aces though šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Awesome set up! I have the limited heritage, what tires are you sporting? Do you have a lift at all? Looks like maybe just a level and wider tires?

It's a Wildtrak, so it's still stock. The wheels are KMC Lobo from Discount Tire, tires are Nitto Recon Grapplers (35x12.50x17), also from Discount Tire.
