Sound Deadening for my SClub

Does anyone know how I go about reducing the road noise in my S-Club. I've got the 17" Web wheels/tyres and I do a fair bit of motorway driving at the moment so I'm wondering if I could use some ICE type sound deadening to make the experience more pleasant. Does anyone have any experience of doing this? Where from? How much? Where should it go? etc etc?
Any info gratefully received...

^ what he said, NewMINIStuff.com, Mike has stripped Clubmans and adds sound deadening when doing an ICE install.

Another option would be to switch tyres for something thats not runflat and a bit quieter

The only problem I have is knowing which one to drive?

Agreed re: changing to conventional tyres - certainly reduced road noise in my case.
