[QUOTE="BillyGman, post: 2353887, member: 19962"] Goodyear makes some more expensive belts that are called "Gatorback" belts. I installed these on my car because they're beiffer, and they have a design that looks just like an alligator's back. They grip a little better than standard belts do. But I also found that they make a little bit of a noise too. It isn't a chirping or squealing noise that's associated with belt slipage though. It's more of a noise that can be descibed as a whistle. However it isn't all that loud. In fact, you usually cannot even hear it from inside the car unless you drive slow past a cment wall or a parked car with your windows down. I've had these belts for about 10 months now.They come in 6-rib and 8-rib designs just like the standard belts do, but they have cross cuts in the ribs kind of like an aggressive snow tire tread. I had them on the car when I gave "Tallboy" a ride in it, and I bet that he didn't even notice the sound the belts make. You really have to listen for it, so I don't know if that's what WildBill would be hearing on his car, since it isn't all that loud like I previously stated. [/QUOTE]
