terrible noise!!

As I was driving down 880 at like 70-80mph, i had all 4 windows down and decided to close them. As i close the front ones first (just happened to reach for them first) and the rear windows were still down. I dont really know how to explain it but I guess it started to vibrate as the air passed across the open rear windows and my ears started to kinda hurt. I thought it was annoying and dont know if anyone else came across the same thing as well.

If any of you havent had that horrible experience then just drive on the freeway at like 70-80mph with only your rear windows open you will probably know what i am talking about.

A solution that cant prevent that is to get the ventilated visors that is offfered by Mugen and probably other vendors as well.

do you mean that you think the mugen visors can negate that effect? it can't because it has something to do with wind and sound and resonance or something like that. it happens in lots of cars.
