Default Feathering...think I got it! HELP

So I just bought a *used* 350 on Friday....and I've been reading up a storm ever since. I noticed it was pretty damn loud when going slow, so I check the tires. Sure enough, it looks feathered to me!

The car has 11234 miles on it (10,970) when I bought it. WHAT DO I DO?

Is there a TSB I need to bring with me to the dealer?? Or will they know what I'm talking about?

HELP! Thanks in advance!

Click on the "resources" Button on the top of the page and it will take you to the TSB section. The one you want is the "Tire noise under braking" TSB.

Made an appointment for next Thursday. I guess they'll switch the tires and check the toe in. The guy said they did this to a track model...but it didn't help.

I really don't care as long as it doesn't affect handling...but it's sad to have to go thru tires so fast.
