Wind noise and S/R Deflector

How is the wind noise of your 3rd gen max? My 94 GXE wind noise is very noticable if speed is over 30mph. Most of the wind noise is on the top.
What do you think? DO I really need a sunroof wind deflector?
Also, I am going to change head light bulb and tires, any suggestion?
I want the tires run quiet and don't cost too much.

Mine's really quiet, and I don't have a deflector. This may sound dumb, but have you checked on the outside of the car to make sure you have the sunroof closed all the way? (or is closing all the way) I got my car just 3 weeks ago and once I didn't close the roof all the way and all this wind noise was coming from it. Try also checking the seals around the sunroof if they're missing or separating, etc. There's no guarantee a deflector will fix any noise.

For tires, check out the other thread here called "tire recommendations" for some info. Personally I just go to www.tirerack.com and search for size and performance type, then read the ratings for the tires and read customer reviews. Very helpful.
