Rub your hands along the outer and inner edges of the front tires. If you feel like the tread wear goes up and down (peaks and valleys), then your tires are feathering. Get an alignment, and new tires.
Actually, the rear tires do feather pretty badly in the G coupe. When I bought my wheels and replaced the stocks, the wheel man was pointing at how bad the feathering was in the inner parts of the rear tires. You could visually see how uneven the wear was, didn't have to touch it or anything.

I was just speaking of the 350z issue, it was only in the fronts. Wasn't sure if the G's had the same issue.
Yes, you can have tire feathering in the rear as well.

Okay .... so i checked for tire feathering this morning.... and we can rule that out... the tires seem just fine.... I had Lek and Puria sit inside the car and check out the noise... they both agreed that something was unusual about the sound.... im hoping its not hub/bearing... i hope it just has to do something with me running A/S tires on the rears and summer performance in the front...
