buy rubber dampeners for them, simple solution.
they are rubber circular pads which still offer quite good stick bounce and reaction.

If this is because you live in an apt or because someone is complaining, why don't you buy a simulated acustic drum, this comes with ear phones so you can hear what you play but no one else can. My daughter bought one for my grandson and he practices on it for his band. No one else can hear anything. I cannot find a website for this, but I talk to her every night and I will find out where she bought it.

There are muting rubber pads available for all size drums and cymbals...check Musician's Friend, Sam Ash etc. or your local music store.

Buy drum pads or dampeners it reduces the noise immensely or use brushes instead of sticks

rubber mats will as well as switching to brushes if this does not help out enough you can purchase cage-like plastic barriers which help to contain the sound sorry I don't remember a name right now but you should be able to find one at most music stores.good luck

as its been said,,if its to bother the neighbors less they make pads for that,,,,, if its for tone, they make rings(or you can make rings out of old dum heads) ,,, also you can try duct tape for dampening,,, plus you can use lighter sticks, brushes,, i use chop sticks sometimes,lol,,, im serious :)
