Question First Time front tire change - Hankook Ventus HRII H405

I'm the 2nd owner of my 03 Z enthusiast, and my tires sound so bad doing about 80-90 (like Im driving over a series of never-ending tiny bumps on the road)

Got the car about a month and a half ago and the tires were already feathered, used cars heh what can you do?

Im getting a pair of Hankook Ventus HRII H405 for the front (225/50R-17)

I wanted to know if anyone has used them and if they were satisfied with them.

I would bump up the size a bit to a 235 or even a 245. I want to give hankook a try on my next set of wheels, tell me how you like em.

If your car is still under 36,000 miles you can get Nissan to buy you new tires. The 03's are know to have a front end feathering problem. Do a search on this forum.

Is there a feathering information area any longer????

I have a 03 Z350 & I'm under the understanding that ALL 03 Z350's have life time Free tires , on the Front (if you stay STOCK). I'm on y 3rd set in 37,700 miles ALL were free even this last set at 37,000 .

I got Nissan to reimburse me some of the purchase price of the Falkens I bought and they also adjusted my alignment up front. Since then I haven't received anything free with regards to tires. :/ I guess this is what happens when you have a 3200lbs car ._.
