Have an '03 Performance with 19,000 miles. Replaced the original Bridgestones (with the roar) with the MXM4 Michelins. I never had a dealer adjustment or the fronts replaced per the T.S.B. from Nissan cause I just did'nt drive it that often. My question is : should I be concerned about these $1100.00 Michelins (Discount tire), doing the same thing? Should I get an alignment or something? The last time I asked a guy at the dealership he said he was'nt aware of a camber or toe-in adjustment per the T.S.B. from the factory problem but I take that with a grain of salt. I would appreciate some input on the MXM4's and will I have the same problem with scalloping. The difference is unbelievable with these tires. Thanks.....

yes get an alignment.

those michelins are good but you got ripped if you bought those at that price unless you included installation price.

Just out of curiosity what is the speed rating for this tire?

winchman

The speed rating is V (up to 149mph) according to this:

isn't this something you should have thought about prior to buying these tires?

The 350Z calls for a W (168 MPH) rated tire. But I guess V (149 MPH is OK).

With respect the feathering problem is 7 years old. Well covered subject.
