Default 2004 Z's only Tire Feathering Poll

Hi everyone,
I'm the owner of a 2004 Z and I'm at 10,000 miles right now and I have the tire feathering roar. Currently I'm told by nissan that the problem is because I can not rotate the tires and basically that is just the way that it is. My question / poll to you is:

Does your 2004 Z with 7k miles or greater have tire feathering that has not yet been fixed?

Your 2004 Z had tire feathering with the original tires but you changed tires and you have more than 5k miles on the new tires and their is no tire feathering?

You own a 2004 Z and you still have tire feathering and your screwed?

I voted for my husband's 2004Z Roadster. 19.5K miles and he just got light feathering. Build date was 03-04. His tire wear looks very even in the front and rear, unlike my 2003 coupe in the front that were wearing on the inside and not on the outside.

The exit polls show:

Your 2004 Z with 7k miles or greater has never had tire feathering.

Winning in a landslide. This poll is over.

You forgot an option -

"Your 2004 Z with 7k miles or greater has tire feathering and you're still waiting for replacement tires."

I was diagnosed in August with feathering at 12k and here I sit with 20k and no new tires

I have a loud humming sound at 20mph only, I dont know if that would be considered tire feathering or not. the tires dont show signs of wearing. My z only has 6k miles on it right now.

Lawn Dart,
I'm starting to be apart of your club, I'm putting together my documentation and I'm going to try and find a lawyer. I have heard good things from others on the forum about Kron & Moss. I just don't want to have to put tires on my car every 10K miles.
This IS NOT normal tire wear. I'm envious of the people that don't have this problem.
