2500 miles on my 05 with no feathering to report ... though if I let go of the wheel, the car, more times to none, will very very slowly start to move right ... not noticiable though while driving = only when trying this experiment!

YOu will need to put on about 10,000 miles to notice any unusual wear on front tires..

Only 7k? I'm at 12k after 5 months and halfway through my second set of tires...

I've had the Azenis for 5k miles and they show some sign of unusual wear on the inner shoulder. Similar to the feathering experienced with older models, but the "sin wave" wave lenght is a lot longuer. They are 235/40r18 on stock Track wheels.

The tires will be dead before that becomes an issue. So I don't mind.

My 2004.5 now has 10,000 miles and the tires are perfect. no unusual wear and perfectly quiet. I have a friend with a early 04 track and his tires also have about 10,000 miles, his are totally trashed with the inside edge of the fronts deeply cupped. This problem is nor subtle. If you've got it, it's obvious and really noisy.
