Quiet tyres for a Golf Plus?

Having enjoyed BMW cars for some years I have switched to Golf Plus. Very good but after the silence of my BMW the tyre noise is very irritating. What would be a wise switch?

Toyo J48 205/55R16s. They were excellent on a Mazda 5 I ran for a year. Alternatively Michelin Primacy 3s.
