Either P6s are very noisy or very noisy car...

Ever since taking off the snow tires and returning to the original Pirelli P6s, the noise level is really getting to me. So much so that on a recent drive (interstate ~ 75 mph) it was hard to carry on a conversation with anyone else in the car - and I decided that something has to be done. Either new tires or a different car.
This beast is an '05 9-5 with only about 20k on it. This is my 3rd Saab and 2nd 9-5, and my first experience with the P6s.
Since the snow tires were quieter, I'm sort of hoping that it's the P6s. I really wasn't planning to get a new car for a few more years, but cannot stand this noise much longer.
Are these thing notoriously noisy - and if so, what is their average lifespan?
Thanks,
Jay
