The tire noise EVs make is about the same as an ICE car at about 50 kph (30 mph) so it doesn't make much difference on busy roads. It does make a huge difference in slow traffic.
It's not tire noise that bothers me, it's the folks who seem to think that the rest of us will think they're cool for being able to hear their engine roaring down the road from a quarter mile away.

They'll switch to very loud music unfortunately.
I would rather hear loud music than ear-piercing motor noise.
