Exclamation 2004 tires compared to the 2003

With the tire feathering and cupping problem. Is that only with the 2003 or also with the 2004?? I just bought a 2004 Enthusiast model 350Z and was wondering if I am going to have tire wear problems with the car???

I've got a 2004 performance model and have had the problem. Trying to get them to replace my tires at this point. I'd suggest taking it in just to be sure...

I have an '04 Roadster, build date June 03, only 4500 miles but I'm seeing the same 'cupping' type of wear I saw in the initial feathering photos, the dealer wasn't too receptive to checking it out when I first saw the cupping at about 3500 miles. I'm getting ready for the next visit as soon as I get over 5K miles, and hear the roaring noise.

Are you serious that if there is tire feathering then you get free tires? Even rear ones?
