Tire help
Hey guys,
I just bought a set of 4 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S's for my 2003 G35 Coupe on factory 17" Wheels.
Now the back story, when I bought my car originally it came with the PS A/S's all around. Now about 7 months ago I found that I needed rear tires, so rather than doing the right thing and replacing them with the same I took it to some tire place and they gave me Firestone's in the rear since they were equivalent to the A/S's (supposedly).
So fast forward a month or so and I notice this terrible vibration at speeds above 65MPH. After a few months I got used to it just turning up the music but I'm sure it wasn't good for the car and it was driving my passengers nuts.
So this past weekend I get all 4 new tires thinking this will fix it all, I will finally have my ride quality back.
Nope, on the way home it felt great, come Monday (today) morning on the way to work and I don't feel the vibration so much, but the cabin noise is still very loud.
I've ready a few posting about tire pressure effecting it so I dropped mine down from 31psi to 30 and still can hear it pretty loud.
At this point I don't know what to do? Should I take it to Infiniti? Would a alignment fix it?
If anyone has experienced this problem or can point me to a resource to read on this problem it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you all for your time!
