I think you meant FZ4's? I had a set of those about 6 years ago (so my memory might not be completely accurate). They were decent--but that is keeping in mind they are all-season tires, so be aware there are compromises in stickiness, especially when the weather was really warm.

As for noise, I'd say they're are a little bit on the loud side but still reasonable. For comparison, nowhere near as bad as the old Bridgestone RE730's.
the 'proxes 4' is a new tire: "ultra-high performance all-season" as opposed to the FZ4 which is categorized as "high-performance all-season".
