Hey all,

So first and foremost, let me get everything set up. About two months ago, I noticed I was having feathering issues on my front tires. About the same time, my struts started showing signs of wear, so I went ahead and bought new springs (350z S.Techs) and struts (Stagg SHS struts), as well as replaced the LCA bushings, which I found were worn, with Whiteline bushings.

I went and got the car aligned (NTB fixed my toe issue, but I still have about 1.5* of negative camber on each side; I know this does not cause feathering). My problem now, is that I still have feathering issues. But only on one side, to the point where I can hear the tire roaring on the road. What's strange, however, is that at times, it will make so much noise that I can barely stand it, yet other times, it's quiet as a mouse.

Anyone ever heard of a suspension moving into and out of alignment just enough to cause a tire feathering issue that makes such a racquet? I'm wondering if it's ball joints, or maybe sway bar end links/bushings.

Any help would be appreciated. I may have to just start replacing all the little suspension parts piece by piece until I get this resolved.

Thanks!

i got same problem.. bout to install my front and rear camber kits and my 4 new pilot sport tires.. most quiet tire made by tire rack standards.. gets a 9.1-10 for road noise..

damn noise drives me crazy, i will figure it out no matter what it takes.

 

End links won't cause that.

You've got a bushing or a cam bolt that's messed up and shifting.

Take it to a shop and have them look over the rest of the bushings and what not.

 

Wheel bearing? And possible a steering rack issue??
