Default Talking to the Dealer - Tire Feathering

I am taking my car in tomorrow to deal with the tire feathering problem. What experiences to people have when talking to the dealer about this? What worked to get the dealer to replace the tires/ fix the problem?

Thanks

First visit: http://www.nissan-techinfo.com/nissa.../350z-z33.asp. Click on "wheel and tire". After reading, report your problem to 1-800-NISSAN1 and get a case number. Most dealers have delt with the problem. However, the first thing he must do is perform those action described in the TSB. Having him evaluate your tires condition. If he and you both feel they need replacing and after TSB, noise is still there, both of you contact NNA, using case # and request tires be replaced under warranty.

Tell them about the tire "roar" and "growl" while braking. They must perform the TSB. Report it to NISSAN1 and get that case #. Hope you have a dealer that is familiar with the problem, sympathetic, and perhaps got tires for other "Z" owners in your area. GOOD LUCK!
