Default 05 Coupe Tire Feathering

I have an 05 G35 Coupe that feathers the front 19" Potenza tires every 9,000 miles. The dealer replaced them once at 9,000 and supposedly aligned it. Now at 19,000 the noise is quite awful. I have been seeing posts about this issue. Is there anything I can do to correct this problem? I am 51 years old and don't corner hard. (I've had no brake issues either... I'm pretty easy on it) Thanks

What tire pressures are you running? How often do you check your pressures? Also, are you running N2 or regular air in your tires?

Not exactly sure what your query is. I think you're saying, you have an 05 Coupe featuring the Forged 19" wheels and Potenza tires, and you're saying that you can't bear the noise from the tires.

If that's the case, I would say, no. Your only option would be 17s or 18s from the years before. The 17's are the quietest.

If you're not interested in buying them from the dealer, i would try Ebay or the Tirerack. You can get a wheel and tire combo pretty cheap.

Don't forget the exhaust noise will remain.
